This rolled by in one of the Facebook groups I’m in.
I recall that someone at a city council meeting mentioned this as a resource, but I haven’t heard anything since. (I’m out of the loop.) Does anyone know anyone powerful that might be able to get one or more people to one of these conferences? 
There’s a conference scheduled in the Denver area November 2019, but that isn’t soon enough!
Full house this morning! Seventeen masters in 3 lanes. The three remaining lanes had as many as many as 9 lap swimmers during the hour, so there was no room to spare. And Pete/Santa was on deck to greet us!
Friday morning’s workout started with swims where the slower pace group in the lane took a short break to let the faster pace group go by. Then we had 25s so we could stop worrying about counting laps.
Did this set work for you? I got a couple of positive comments. Don’t be afraid to let me know if you had a bad experience with the way I set up a set; I really want to know. I can’t catch everything that happens from up on the deck.
It’s taking more brain power to write these types of workouts, but I hope it helps people feel like there’s a place for them. Together we can make this work!
In case you didn’t know, the Mega Millions lottery jackpot is up to $1.2 billion. The jackpot is projected to be up to $1.6 billion by next Tuesday night’s drawing. If you buy a ticket and win, promise to set aside a few million for a new Longmont pool. I’m sure Brian will let you name the facility anything you want.
The air temperature dropped below 40 degrees this morning. I can’t tell you exactly what the water temperature was, but I’d guess 82. I thought I’d document those that attended so they can claim bragging rights.
At least until Wednesday when it’s supposed to be REALLY cold.
Twelve people in the water getting it done.

Ryan and Lee swimming gold in lane 2.
Dwayne, Rebecca, and Shawn swimming silver in lane 3. Shawn is mentally already on a beach in Indonesia.
Hillari and Dan swimming bronze today in lane 4.
Yinn, Jim and Jeff swimming iron in lane 5.
Thanks to Pete, we have a toasty-warm heater during the workout.
Thanks to gallon Ziploc bags, you can make many things water resistant. Unfortunately, this was the only clock we had today, since the big pace clock is afraid of water these days.
I love how coaches in this sport are always trying to figure out a new way to get the message across. I saw this video a couple days ago and it made me giggle.
