Swim Rant

I'm on a roll... How about the lanemates that seem to have raw garlic and onions every day for lunch, or have gum disease ?

How about the large and fast swimmers who create a huge wake forcing me into the lane rope? Now that is annoying! Or how about when your stuff gets stolen in the locker room? :eek:

Originally posted by jean sterling We had a noodler instructor who used to yank the cord on the pace clock, so she could plug in her boom box. I'd finish a 50 or 100 in a set and would wonder if I was really that fast, or, even worse, could I possibly have been that slow. Finally a swimmer told the noodle instructor if she unplugged the pace clock again that she (the swimmer) would yank the cord on the boom box. The Noodle instructor would put on this coma music and drag us down, so the next day I tried to switch her radio to a high energy rock station, unfortunately it would not pick it up. Another pool where I occasionally swim, the Noodle Instructor puts on bad 70s-80s disco- I almost drowned from laughing while swimming. Picture a pod of 12 400+ pounders aqua dancing to Village People's YMCA

I hate people cutting through the middle of the pool. I always inform them that there is a reason why there are lap lanes. I makes me so mad, that I'm mad now just thinking about it.

Middle aged people who workout for more than an hour a day 4-5 days a week. Get a life ! John Smith

Middle aged people who don't need to work out more than an hour a day 4-5 days a week to swim extremely fast.

Yeah, but I didn't include a smiley face.

Dry Hair People. Kinda like no-sweat running, no out-of-breath anything. What's the point? Where's the joy? DV

My pet peeve about swimming posts on a different website now.
