stellar_muddleYay swimming :)
Just got back from the Porirua pool(check under Trust Porirua Aquatic Center). Was worth it and we definitely want to get back in the habit. The verdict is that Sun mornings are a good time, because the fact half of Tawa/Porirua is at church does actually make a dent in the number of people at the pool. They also have a good setup whereby most of the kids are busy in the wave pool etc and you are free to swim lanes in the lane pool in peace. And spa, sauna, steam room and hydroslide are included in the entry price.
Speaking of which, prices are:
$4.50 per adult, going down to $40 for 10 trips, $76 for 20 or $185 for 50.
Bonus of discount rate $3.50 for adults when going 8am - 2pm or 7:30 - 9pm weeknight (excluding weekends, school and public holidays) and $30 for 10 off peak trips.
Hours are:
Mon - Fri 6am - 9pm, Weekends 8am - 7pm, public holidays 8am - 7pm.
So, anyone interested in Tues and/or Thurs evening and/or Sun morning swimming?
Feel free to poke if I don't post on swimming once a week.
Distance: 400m (16 lengths).
Aim, to improve by 2-4 lengths each time for a while. K is happily doing 1-2km each time, but she has been swimming 4 times a week for the past few months.
