I am 13 days out from IMLOU and my swim club is closed all week for annual maintenance. The “alternative” swim clubs provided, do not offer lap swimming. I only need about 2 hours of swimming this week. As much I would like to bag these swim workouts, I think the final week of my taper will have very limited activity. So, I don’t want to miss these workouts. Does anyone in the Northern Kentucky / Cincinnati area have a lap pool that allows guest / non-members to swim? THANKS!!!
UC allows it, but it is like $20 a day I think.
I swim at the Mason Community Center and I think they allow non-members (check for info at imaginemason.org). Fyi, they are doing maintenance on the competition pool this week also but the leisure pool that has swim lanes (just many degrees warmer) will be open all week for lap swimming.
The new U.C. pool is awesome - a little pricey, but better than avg eye candy as well (for both sexes). Xavier also has a pool with masters program. If you are a YMCA member, any of the 15 or so Y’s can accomodate you. PM me or kitty as we have a few “free” passes for the Blue Ash Y (but a bit far for you to drive).
I’d just spend the $ and go to the U.C. one

I ended up swimming with the Anderson Barracudas Masters Team and would recommend it.
Thanks for the info! I will check into swimming at UC.
