For me, it's now going on four weeks since my last swim. We were in Turks and Caicos March 7-14 for spring break where I was doing daily open-water swims along the beach. My last swim was a 3-miler on March 13. When we got back to the U.S., we had to go into mandated 14-day quarantine so I wasn't able to get out to go to the pool before they all closed. Who knows when I'll swim again...either open-water warming up (I live in RI), or pools opening again. I am maintaining fitness with bike rides, and a run here and there. And I know I there is other 'dry land' training I could be doing. But my concern when returning to the water is injuring myself because of doing TMTS. I'm just that kind of athlete. Raise you're hand if you think you're a candidate for a TMTS injury too.

There's a company that rents pools by the hour - $65. From the picture, it looks like I could do 3 strokes before I hit the wall. :banana:
I opened our home pool about a month early this year. It doesn't have an Endless Pool device, but I was doing some tethered swims (with wetsuit on) with the tether I got from SwimOutlet. The elastic bungee cord tether costs about $15 +/- and works just as good. I can judge my stroke intensity...how hard I'm pulling on the bungee...by what object on the pool deck I'm next to.
