If you're swimming in an outdoor pool -
which do you like better daytime or nighttime swims and why?
Even though I can only practice at night, I love swimming during daylight hours. I love being able to see my shadow on the bottom of the pool while swimming. It's a cool view. Plus there's a chance I'll tan. However those glorious back V tanlines are impossible to get rid of. :shakeshead: Thoughts?
Swimmerlisa,
It's not even 75F inside my house right now.
I live across the street from the most fantastic outdoor pool you've ever seen. It's a converted limestone quarry. There's a 50 m pool spanning the SHORT width of it. There's a diving/deep water area with floating piers that is almost 100x100yds big. Of course, you can only really train open water in it because by late June you can't see the lines on the bottom any more (a tad murky) but oh well.
It absolutely breaks my heart every Labor Day when it closes until the following Memorial Day. I used to have an excel program that did an auto-countdown of months, weeks, days, hours, and minutes until the pool opened up again. Every now and then I'd give my co-workers an update. Ah, they loved this. :woot:
