Here's a thread for the ladies to discuss anything that relates to women and swimming. For example, feel free to discuss how disgustingly ugly fastskins are, how the "curse" can kill a meet, how suits don't fit, how swimming wrecks your hair, how hormones unhinge you, etc.
Our pool is often too warm for comfort--84 or 85 degrees. It's particularly onerous of distance days. The only consolation I have managed to give myself is that perhaps this is forcing more heat adaptation to occur, and when I get to race in more hospitable temperatures, I will benefit. But who knows?
It's ONLY 84-85 degrees? :laugh2: :lmao::rofl: I can only wish our pool would get down to the too-hot 84 degrees I was swimming in before I returned from my trip to Alaska! Since I've been back, the heat was turned off, but water temp. has climbed from 86 to 88, since Saturday, due to the greenhouse effect (our pool is indoors). :shakeshead: :cry::help: :whiteflag:
I keep trying to CONVINCE myself it will do me good to train in an adverse environment, but my mind is willing and my body ain't. With my heat intolerance (medical) issues, I feel like I'm taking one step forward and two steps back.... :afraid:
