Master  1356   |  Subject: RE: Team Post Padding (Four-Is-More Challenge)amyro1234 - 2008-09-08 4:33 PM No. I'm closer to southern OH. I have no idea where Niles/Cortlans are, but I'm sure they have some greak 5Ks too  Mid distance from Cleveland and Pittsburg airports, closer to Akron but what flights ever land there? |

What if you're stuck in a 25yd pool... or a 10yd? End of Sept the 25yd pool closes and my choice is shelling out $145/month or swimming in 10yds. The $145 includes unlimited free babysitting of one kid so I MIGHT go for it and make use while older child is in preschool. |

Yeah, I started training in the 10yd pool last spring, but then it was all i could do to get 200 yrds done so while it was painful, it was doable. I guess my other option is to drop swimming from the training until next spring... |

Have you looked into resitance swimming bands? http://www.activeforever.com/p-2312-aquavee-portable-swim-system-kit.aspx I've never tried them, but wondered if it would be an option... |

Science Nerd 28760 Redwood City, California | Subject: RE: Team Post Padding (Four-Is-More Challenge) otter_sh - 2008-09-08 6:26 PM It did not work, they got too wet and stuck together I think of things that start with a letter of the alphabet for the lap. Each lap starts with a new letter of the alphabet in order. Lap 1 = "A": alphabets, apples, aardvark... Lap 2 = "B": beta, bluebell, bluegill, .. |

Each lap starts with a new letter of the alphabet in order. Lap 1 = "A": alphabets, apples, aardvark... Lap 2 = "B": beta, bluebell, bluegill, .. Huh? You're trying to count laps? I just do odd numbers on the way up. And even numbers on the way back. And if I get "lost," I reset myself to the lowest number that I remember. (It's good motivation to keep track. Otherwise, I'm constantly on lap #1.) If there are lane lines, you could always move one away from the rest after a certain number of laps. (And then hope that no one pushes them back together.) Or, you could just get one of those Lap Counter thingys, like the one from Finis: "Finis Lap Track - Underwater Lap Counter & Timer" |

I find I can think about almost anything when I swim EXCEPT anything with numbers. The minute I start thinking something like, "How many days until ____?" --> Poof! The lap count is gone. |
