The coached workouts threads seem to be restricted to actual USMS members. Fair enough, I guess, but they've always been the main (possibly only) reason I visited the site.
I got a lot of my workouts (mainly "Distance Free") courtesy of Chris Layton and Scott Hofteizer over the last 2 years or so, and tips from the other coaches. Thanks for making that possible, chaps!

Hi,
what I found out till now regarding swimmers outside of the US and membership:
looks like that an online-registration isn't possible if you aren't living in the states because of the missing us-mail-adress.
But: Living in a foreign country you can register as an unattached member but you have to sign up in a self choosen area. I.E: As I 'm connected via my family with San Diego I choosed the LMSC – SAN DIEGO-IMPERIAL (SI) LOCAL MASTERS SWIM COMMITTEE (LMSC). There you can download a SI-USMS-RegMember-Form. At the same time I tried to contact SI but didn't get an answer till now ... perhaps people are very busy there ... I'll try it once more.
To fill the form isn't the problem – all is written clear and easy – also for me ;-)) but I can't find an advise how to pay the membership fee. For the Online-registration you are guided and you can pay via Credit-Card but how about the other way for us foreigners.
Is here somebody who knows more?
