Today I was reminded of why I stopped swimming at the y and started swimming at Cazenovia College. At the YMCA they have a water aerobics class(es) every morning between the hours of 8:30 and 10-11:30. This in itself is an issue-because this is my Prime swimming time and it doesn't seem fair to me that they would fill this time w/water aerobics M-F-but they do and they aren't gonna change it. During these class times they close up to 4 out of 6 lanes down for the class. Today they closed down 4 lanes and I was in the lane closest to where the aerobics class was happening in the rest of the pool. As I came to wall for a quick rest, one of aerobics queens tapped me on the shoulder and this is what she said, "Excuse me, I know you are lap swimming, but every time you swim by us you are splashing us. Is there anyway you can not do that??" OMG. Are you Effing kidding me? My response, "Uh, no-there isn't a way I cannot do that-this is a swimming pool!!!" Unbelievable. Back to Caz college I go!
these are the sorts of things that makes one go bananas. that's like asking a fellow runner at a race to please stop sweating on you. oy.
