For all you chlorine addicted swimmers out there, who do not have their own pool, what would be some reasons you would not install a lap pool in your yard (assuming you had the money and room for a pool). I have wanted to buy a house just so I can put in a pool to swim in, however, I have a bit of motion sensitivity, and the rockier the water, the worse I feel. I'm thinking that a lap pool would be very choppy. That's the only reason I haven't moved yet. What would be your reasons?

When I first moved to Arizona, I couldn't wait to get my own pool. But, we fell in love with a house that wasn't ideal for building one.
I am glad it worked out that way. I'm in a pool or a lake at least once a day, but I don't think I'd ever get in my own pool. I like swimming with other people, and the public/semi-public pools around here are nicer than anything we would have built.
Plus, I'd rather shower and get ready in the locker room and be done with it before I get home.
