What are your 4th of July plans? Do they include a morning masters swim? If so, you better change them.
THERE IS NO MORNING MASTERS SWIM SATURDAY, JULY 4
Author: beckydreasher
It’s coming….
Memorial Day weekend, that is.
This is your reminder that there is NO MASTERS SWIM during the Memorial Day weekend (Saturday, May 23 and Monday, May 25).
Noontime swim moves outdoors starting Tuesday, May 26.
Saturday morning swim moves outdoors starting Saturday, May 30. The start time switches to 8:00 am.
Weekday morning swim moves outdoors starting Monday, June 1. The start time remains 6:00 am.
Summer switchover
It’s still off in the future, but it’s coming: SUMMER. That means we’ll be switching over from indoors to outdoors soon. As in previous years, the switchover runs over two weeks, with noon-time and Saturday swims switching over the first week, and 6:00 am swims switching over the second week.
As in previous years, there is NO MASTERS SWIM on the Saturday or Monday of Memorial Day weekend.
Here’s the summary:
First swim meet for LOCOM!
We did it! Team LOCOM made its first splash at the Polansky Sweetheart meet hosted by Loveland Masters at Mountain View Aquatic Center.
Want to add a little purpose and accountability to your swim workouts? Consider swimming in a USMS meet. Here are the nearest meets coming this spring:
— February 22-23, 2025 – Buff Invite at VMAC in Thornton (College club meet open to masters swimmers. Saturday is prelims; Sunday is finals)
— March 2, 2025 – Foothills Masters Spring Splash in Littleton
— March 2, 2025 – Breadbasket Zone Championship in Papillon, NE
— March 8-9, 2025 – Pikes Peak Athletics March Meet in Colorado Springs
— March 22-23, 2025 – New Mexico LMSC Championships in Albuquerque, NM
— April 4-6, 2025 – COMSA Short Course Championship at VMAC in Thornton
While participation in the other meets is TBD, LOCOM will be swimming at the COMSA Championships April 4-6. Don’t be intimidated by the word “championship.” There are no time cuts required for entry. Just ask if you have questions or need a nudge.
Modified location for the “Eves”
The Tuesday noon swim will be held at Centennial Pool (rather than the Rec Center) during the weeks of Christmas and New Year’s. The Rec Center will be overrun with kids during that hour.
Tuesday, December 24th – 12:00 noon at Centennial Pool
Tuesday, December 31st – 12:00 noon at Centennial Pool
By the way — there will be NO SWIM on Christmas Day and New Year’s Day. You have my permission to sleep in, if your kids let you.
