I have been swimming in the pool at my new school and the pool is kept somewhere in the low 70's. Since I moved from my hometown to school I haven't been swimming as frequently as I was before, still twice a week at least. Does anyone know if a cold pool effects your ability, my times are slower and I never seem to get warmed up during a workout.

Sign me up! Where's your pool? Cold water for me any day instead of the rediculously high temps (>85) at the YMCA I swam at until a month ago. I finally had enough and found a new pool and new Masters team.
I always feel better in water around 75. High water temp combined with the generally high air temp on the pool deck wears me out.
