My gym has a nearly empty 3 lane pool

This looks so much like my pool! But ours is NEVER empty. I love how convenient LA Fitness is, but sometimes it gets really busy at my pool

As much as busy pools can be frustrating with lane traffic jams, I actually prefer that to an empty pool because my mind goes to silly thoughts like sharks lurking in the deep end.

I blame the Jaws movies I watched as a kid. I know it’s not realistic but it’s a random thought when the pool gets deserted

I’m super jealous. I had to give up my after-work or mid-day swimming sessions. Now I go at 9 PM to the work-related pool because that’s when I can find a free lane.

Always super busy in January; I feel guilty wishing for fewer new-year resolution failures
