Sorry if this is a dumb/inappropriate question for this forum but does anybody on the boards live in/near Scottsdale that could recommend a team/place to swim? I will be in down Thursday/Friday of this week staying at the Fairmont Scottsdale Princess.
Thanks much!
I'd estimate 30 to 45 min from the Princess to either of the ASU pools, depending on traffic. It may be faster not to use the freeway.
From the Princess to the Cactus pool (at Scottsdale & Cactus), probably about 15 minutes, a pretty straight shot down Scottsdale Rd. Laura Winslow coaches there most mornings (she is a more active coach). I swam there every now and then when I worked in N Scottsdale, but they were a separate program/team then.
Paul--I heard you deserted us for the Brophy group ;)
Time is valuable at 5:00 in the morning. I think I'll opt for the closer pool (it appears to be less than 5 miles from the hotel to the Cactus pool). Would be cool to meet a forum stalwart such as yourself, though. Some other day...
