Brian Stack started a thread a few months ago about where to swim in Philadelphia: forums.usms.org/showthread.php
There's lots of good info there, so using that as a starting point, any suggestions on where I might swim? I'll be in town for a few days later this month for work. I'll be staying near the airport and working at the Boeing plant. After work would probably be best. I will have a car. My typical workouts are around 5,000 yards and I hold around 1:015-1:10/100 pace (SCY) just to give you an idea.
kirk, sounds like you need to leave work at 330 and make the 2+hr commute down to UMD for our 630pm practices :) i've got nothing on philly, though it may be worth inquiring about swimming at some of the universities there. Upenn is ok and not too far away. The assistant coaches at Drexel are both USMS members, so they may be able to get you hooked up there too.
