Thought of this while reading the "Swim Rant" thread. Okay-- totally anonymous poll: do you shower before getting in the pool for swim practice?

  • Our pool has signs about showering before you put your suit on. We even have signs telling bathers that underwear is not allowed in the pool. it seems the growing trend over here is to just wear your regular shorts with briefs/boxers under. I only shower when I am at the pool on my free time, or with the girls for their swim lessons. if I get to the pool at 19:40 and practice doesn't start until 20:00 I am not going to shower then freeze (as mentioned above) for 20 minutes on deck.
