    No. Flew Seattle to Vegas. Winds buffeted the plane on final approach. On the ground with sweaty palms and a snotty nose from another cold of unknown origin. Alleve, two tablets and sleep.

    Yay. Yes, a good swim before class. 1.5 miles. Haven't had time (or energy) for that in a while. It felt good all the way to the end. No swim tonight though-dinner and a play with my husband instead. Back at it tomorrow.

    @emmab0902 , 33 meter pool length is common enough that iit is one of the "standard" length presets in my Garmin.
    25, 33, and 50.

    @emmab0902 Is it a 35 x 25m Pool with a 2m wide Moveable bulkhead yielding 33 x 25?
    We have quite a few of these where they set up a Floating Bulkhead that will cut the pool back to 25m and then have a small 8x25m lane/training pool on the other side of the bulkhead.

    I think this originated from pools where they had co-located Diving Platforms and could change the size of the diving tank or create 2 separate pools for Water Polo.

    Yuh, the 20 meter outdoor pool in my mom's gated community. No black lines on the pool floor (stretch your own string betwixt two stones on the floor)
    With only one lane line in a four lane pool, I enjoyed seeing where I ended up when doing backstroke!

    Nope it's just a straight 33m pool. 33.3 could be forgiven but this is daft!

    2000m yesterday in the only short break during work.

    2250y yesterday, then the Monday class. I didn't have much left in me by the time class started. My sister and I trail run on Sundays and we're slowly upping mileage for a 15K in mid-March. Tired legs. But the pool feels so good, and the cross training makes the swims so much better. It would be hard not to get in...

    If you're visiting relatives in Las Vegas (I am), you may enjoy the county lap pools, open to the public Monday thru Saturday, $3 adults,$1 for swimmers over 55.
    I swam at the Aquatic Springs Pool today. It features much indirect natural light from glass panel walls. 10 lanes. I've never shared a lane there.
    Tomorrow: I swim at the Desert Breeze pool--over twenty lanes of 25m on a 50m.
    The YMCA on the NW side of town will reciprocate for members of other Y's. Their pool has six lanes. Busy place.
    On the far west side of town, the Pavilion Center pool welcomes swimmers 7 days a week. moderately busy, but I haven't had to share a lane.

    I will tonight! Missed last nights practice due to extreme soreness. I’m really hoping we don’t do sprints tonight. I’m very over short sets and sprints!

    Managed to make it back to the pool today - it's a bit tricky in the summer holidays when you have two small children in tow. Their aunt tagged along and played with them while I swam. I managed 34 lengths of the 60m pool - 2040m, making it my longest swim ever. Took an hour but my watch is still playing up so I can't really analyse the data (it credited me with 3840m!).

    1500y yesterday before a really good class. I feel so lucky that we have such good water fitness instructors. I think there's a culture in our rec department of the city to give people a workout. If they want to paddle around, they can do that on their own time. (People still paddle around, but the instructors are told to teach to the top.)
    Dentist appointment after work today, so no laps. Tomorrow, back at it. There's been some talk of snow early next week. That would shut our pool down. It would shut down the entire city, actually... Here's hoping it's just rain.

    Snow doesn't *kitten* down my Y unless it is really bad or a deflated state of emergency.
    Be safe.
    I have the dentist next week. But i'll still swim. Just at the Y closest to the dentist so I can still get the whole swim in before going.
