I'm going to Houston next week. Where should I swim?
I know nothing about the city, having never been there. I will be staying at the Hotel Derek so the closer the pool is to there, the better.
It's been a long time since I lived there, but you will be kinda close to many nice pools. Just a bit farther southeast you have the Jewish Community Center, which has an indoor 25 yard & outdoor 50meter pool, a bit more inside the loop and you have West University Place & Rice University. Also the University of Houston - but that may be a bit too far away - and then my favorite, the Dad's Club - which is off I-10 not too far away Houston standards - but it is old now - the 50m pool was brand new when I trained there. Have you checked on-line? They used to have a city wide type of masters team called H2O that trained in many different pools. Watch out for the nasty Palmetto Bugs and humidity!
