Yet another new normal

You want change? You got change.

As of Friday, Boulder County is in Level Red. With that change, Centennial Pool is limited to 10 people in the building at a time. Who’s non-essential at this point? THE COACH!

There will be no coach on deck for masters swim sessions as long as we are limited to one single swimmer per lane. If I were to guess, we need to drop back down for Level Yellow before we are allowed three swimmers per lane again.

Pool staff will be able to print workouts from the “Recent Workouts” page of this site for you to follow. If you crave some level of control, I suggest that you find one that you like and print it out, and bring it with you.

Crazy times, folks. Hang in there.

The year 2020 strikes again

Well, well, well. I was afraid of this.

Being limited to 10 swimmers per workout seemed a little extreme, but I knew it could get worse. And it did. We’ve been capped at one swimmer per lane.

Weekday mornings: 4 lanes => 4 swimmers

Saturday mornings: 6 lanes => 6 swimmers

These caps apply as of Saturday, November 7, 2020. Anyone who signed up over that cap should get an email stating that you’ve lost your reservation for the session(s).

Sorry for the bad news.

Here we go again

Boulder County has issued additional guidance to coincide with “Safer at Home: Level 3.” What does that mean for us masters swimmers? It means we will be capped at TEN SWIMMERS.

Weekdays when we have four lanes? TEN SWIMMERS.

On Saturdays when we have all six lanes? TEN SWIMMERS.

That means we are stuck for the next few swims where twelve people have signed up. We will need two volunteers to surrender their spot, or there will be a reverse lottery.
