WOO HOO!!!

(love the banana!)

P.S. Odd that this is under "outdoor fun" when most of our swimming is probably done indoors...? :p Hey, I ain't complainin'!!! This is great! I'll probably do most of my workouts indoors but I would like to do some open water races, too. I'm just not going to do tri's.

L8R!

If I get back in Masters it will be winter under a bubble top (short course, 25yd pool) and summer outdoor (long course, 50m pool). I would think in Austin you would have the option of some outdoor pools too. Does the campus have only an indoor?

I'm in San Marcos, south of Austin but, yeah, and the same for the City's lap pool. I don't mind swimming indoors, especially during winter! When I lived in Bryan/College Station (or the AggiePlex as we affectionately called it), I did used to swim in an outdoor heated pool. We had a Polar Bear Club but it was really only cold when you got out.

We're building a new pool on campus ('09) and I thought it was going to be outdoor but, in the end, they changed it back it indoor. I think they were afraid it would be an "attractive nuisance." I can see college students being too tempted to jump whatever kind of fence was put up for a little late night skinny dipping... not that any of our students would get drunk an attempt such a feat! Hell, they might have even found me in there with 'em!
