Do you mean to say that your legs aren't fitting? From what I can see, there is NEVER a bad time to post a pic of those legs.
I hear you. What I usually see standing/floating in one shallow end, the rest is people/kids are splashing around, chasing each other, treading water, diving, swimming underwater and coming up, side stroking, etc..that's all swimming to me.
Lap swim lanes are for the hardcore. It's the only way to get a good swim in without having kids bumping into you, throwing balls and splashing and the like. Not saying that I haven't been guilty of doing that with my son. LOL
lippy completely agrees...every inner city public pool is filled with kids swimming...men swimming with their kids...dare i say that i don't know and haven't seen too many adult (b) women swimming...i think it's a hair thing...my lil neighbor girl is now a teenager...she used to swim every day in the summer...but now that she get a weave in her hair..no swimming
lippy was perusing through my son's yearbook yesterday and i noticed something very interesting...the yearbook is from an innercity high school...all of the cheerleaders were black...the entire swim team was white...the majority of the football team were black...the tennis team members were all white...the soccer team both girls and boys were all white...it was interesting to see how the sports teams and clubs would swing one way or the other in race in a very mixed school...
