Expert  615   Littleton, CO |  Subject: RE: Do you pee in the pool?In the shower? Didn't George Costanza get booted from his NY club for peeing in the locker room shower? Now I feel obligated to answer the poll publicly - I NEVER go in the pool. The snot is a toughie. If I know I have to blow, like today, I keep a snot rag on the deck to use. But when it's unexcpected, should it go in the gutter? Does it then get filtered out, or does it just come right back in? Yeah! A really gross thread!  |

It's a great way to lose your lane, too. Joel, I can't believe you started this thread! I was alright with the topic, until Brett admitted blowing snot all over the place! |

Brett, considering I swim at the same pool as you, this was way more than I wanted to know! Remind me to never share a lane with you |

(I've solved that last one - the ball comes in my lane, and it gets launched to the far side of the building...) |

Elite Veteran 777 flatland | Subject: RE: Do you pee in the pool? No. I only swim 30 and 45 minutes at a time, and if I can't hold it that long, I get out. :P When I had a swim class awhile ago, me and maybe one other person would get out of the pool during class (this was an hour and 1/2 long class, I have to go at least once being in a pool that long). I prefer to think that the rest of my class were in their late teens/early twenties and have far more resiliant bladders than my elderly self. I'm just about to hit that very same pool for my swim at lunch. Thanks for this thread. *blech* |

Pro 5153 Helena, MT | Subject: RE: Do you pee in the pool? I think you guys are a bunch of hypocrits. You all freely admit to peeing in the open water right before a race, but not the pool. Right before a race, there are a hundred people standing right next to you! If you know anything about diffusion, you'll know that even if you pee during the race, folks are gonna be swimming through that (unless you're last, in which case, be my guest). Diffusion doesn't happen THAT quickly. Pee is for toilets, bushes and the spot between 4 cars in big parking lots, people. Have some couth. |

Champion 5495 Whizzzzzlandia Silver member | Subject: RE: Do you pee in the pool? I ALWAYS pee before I get into the pool.... I don't pee IN the pool... Although I do pee in my wetsuit...which is used for open water swims, which was previously used by my brother in law, who peed in it too. Ugh. |

Not a Coach 11473 Media, PA | Subject: RE: Do you pee in the pool? The snot is a toughie. I forgot about snot. Since I breath out my nose I know I'm blowing snot sometimes--especially if I've been a bit congested. I don't think twice about this. Hmm. Maybe the pee thing is OK too. |

Veteran 264 Golden Colorado | Subject: RE: Do you pee in the pool? If it is limited to pee in the pool I could probably live with it..anything else and you may end up like Joe with turd-o-phobia. I myself..will not pee in the pool - I get out and go the 3 feet to the hot tub to do that..that thing is disgusting anyway. |

| Subject: RE: Do you pee in the pool? I think the fact that this is even up for debate says a lot about what's wrong with SOME people in society today. If you, as an ADULT, are so selfish, inconsiderate and lazy that you would rather purposely piss in water that other people take into their mouths and ears, then you've got bigger problems than an overactive bladder and have no business of having the privelage of sharing the pool with others. ... stepping down from soapbox |

Master 1420 Reston, VA | Subject: RE: Do you pee in the pool? I never pee in the pool but FYI pee dissolves in the average pool in less than 10 seconds from chlorine. Edited by docswim24 2005-03-24 5:33 PM |

| Elite 2458 Livingston, MT | Subject: RE: Do you pee in the pool? What you guys don't pee in the pool? I thought everyone did... A couple weeks ago my Coach was surprised when I got out of the pool to take a leak. I think the expectation at that pool is to just let loose. He probably thought I was loafing. Oh well... Just think of all the nasties in the water. In summary: 1. Pee 2. Snot 3. Sweat 4. Spit 5. Did someone wipe well? 6. Ear wax 7. Band Aides w/ blood 8. Blood w/o Band Aides 9. Love juice 10. When was the last time that guy showered? 11. Hair and Skin 12. Barf Pour me a tall glass of pool water! Edited by ChuckyFinster 2005-03-24 5:55 PM |

molto veloce mama 9311 | Subject: RE: Do you pee in the pool? no kidding. a woman i know was asked to leave a local pool because she was breast feeding her baby on the pool deck. now, in minnesota, its the law that a woman can breastfeed where ever she would otherwise legally allowed to be. the lifeguard said it was because breastmilk is a bodily fluid, which it is, but hey...what else did he think was in the pool? anyway, she didn't leave and the director of the pool ended up making a HUGE apology. |
