Swimming While Travelling

So last weekend I made a trip to Green Bay to see my folks and to attend a Packer game. While there I took an hour and headed up to the local YMCA for a swim. They have a nice 4 lane lap pool there and rarely crowded. I briefly shared a lane but soon found myself swimming alone. It felt good to get a good 1500 yards in.

This week I am travelling to Nashville for a convention. I depart Thursday and return on Sunday. I had looked up the resort before I left and it appeared they had a lap pool at the resort! So after I got there I went and checked it out. Sure enough, 3 lap lanes built into the indoor pool.

So Friday morning, I threw on my suit, grabbed my necessary equipment and headed down to the pool.

I was pretty tired from my Tri-Swim class on Thursday morning still, so a nice and easy 1000 yard swim over about 25 minutes was what was on tap today. There was one lifeguard sitting alone in the chair and another lifeguard taking a nap on one of the loungers. It was quiet and I was the only one there. The fitness center was another story. That place was packed!

So with the swim done, I was ready for a day of conventioning, and then we explored Broadway and downtown Nashville that night.
