Biking, then swimming....
Biking on my own, but with the group at TCS (Train Chicago Studios)... doing my own workout, but having friends there to ride with was great!
However, I had to get to Welles Park afterwards around 1pm to swim there. Welles Park has a great facility as far as a Chicago Park District pool goes: big windows the side of the entire south elevation of the pool, super high ceilings, lots of deck space.... but the way they set up their lap swimming IS THE WORST!
They have 6 lanes, but instead of using 5 lane lines to split them up, they only use two to make three MASSIVE ridiculous lanes.
You are truly swimming in circles there and talk about people not understanding the "fast lane" from the "slow lane"!! This particular Sunday, there were two gray hairs even just swimming around in the deep end. I almost lost it!
I wasn't really able to do my workout, but at least I did get some laps in. I am going to try and avoid this pool at all costs. Unfortunately, this time it was the only one with the right hours for me to attend both biking and swimming!
