6000 yards, just swim 6 laps of the pool

After our pre-senior practice this evening, where we had a great talk about setting daily goals, and challenging yourself and not being "pin balls in the pool" (you will have to ask someone in pre-senior about that one, as I am not quite sure how I got to talking about pinball machine's), I was doing my evening browsing on the net, about found this pool. It is more than 1,000 yards long, covers 20 acres, had a 115ft deep end and holds 66 million gallons of water. Yesterday the Guinness Book of Records named the vast pool beside the sea in Chile as the biggest in the world. Here are some more pictures of this monster (20 times the size of the Y outdoor pool). Imagine having a 6,000 yard workout and only having to swim 6 lengths of this pool. I think I may send Coach Guy to check out this pool.

Good luck this weekend to those swimming in The Middle Atlantic meet in New Jersey, and many of you will venture down to Chambersburg to swim in the Y dual meet (remember that pool is meters).

Messiah College pool is back open again on Monday, so we will be able to see some less crowded lanes at the Y.

Keep up the great work at practice!!
