I know that you're there... and you have something to say.
Lets' hear it.
But seriously. Do Fitness and Lap Swimmers really read this Forum?
I wish they did, but I doubt they see the potential.
Fitness and Lap Swimmers, I'm a masters swim coach.
I watch your lanes - oh maybe 15-20% of the time I coach the masters lanes.
I see those of you lurking on the side lanes listening to the sets - and to the stroke instruction...
Watching swimmers underwater for stroke demonstrations.
Its' ok - and a really good thing.
A decent masters swim coach knows how to recruit right out of those lap swimming lanes.

P.S. I loved reading the thread, "As an outsider to harcore swimming..."
Finally some swimmers after my own heart.
Except that I like to recruit lap swimmers to our program!

I compete for the fun and camaraderie...I swim for the fitness--my main reason. My Times aren't worth getting excited about!
Ditto here......................... with one amendment:
I swim because I like and enjoy the feeling (that fitness is a result? Great!)
:drown:
How come that the ONLY swimming smiley we have (on the site) is a "drowning"?
Can we have real swimming smileys, please?
Maybe one for each stroke?
