On September 30, I wrote about my search for an indoor swimming pool in my community that met my requirements. Over the past couple years, I’ve felt like Goldilocks: one pool was too warm, the other too cold. Was there one that would be just right?
On the basis of two swims this week, I believe the pool at the YMCA is the proper bowl of porridge for me. And I intend to eat it up. Or, since I’m a lap swimmer, I’ll lap it up.
The pool is big and bright. The deep end is over twelve feet, so there are diving possibilities. The swim lanes are wider than average; and even though you have to share them at times there is plenty of room to pass another swimmer without concern about arms colliding.
The locker room is not fancy, but it has all the necessary items: lockers, showers, hair dryers, even a cosmetic mirror. You do have to bring your own towel and your own lock, but those are minor adjustments.
Best of all this Goldilocks thought the temperature of the water in the pool was just right!
