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.
Leslie and Evilwatersprite,
A friend of mine is moving back to his family's home in Vienna. He has been swimming for years with the U. Pitt masters swimming team, though he does so mainly for exercise (I don't think he swam as a kid.)
Anyhow, are there Vienna-based teams that are accommodating to less than world-class swimmers such as yourselves?
If so, I will refer Yiu to you (pronounced "u2u").
There are no masters teams in Vienna. Closest teams are Fairfax County Masters (punch card), Reston Masters (punch card, I think, and cheaper than GMUP), and GMUP (monthly dues). Machine Masters is part of a USA team that practices in nearby Oakton at 5:00 am next to the Machine age groupers. Reston Masters, as I understand it, is fairly crowded. I can't speak for the other teams, but GMUP has swimmers at all levels.
