I started in the masters swim program in Sept'07 & have been hooked ever since.Coach Janine has been the reason.She has helped me enormously w/my strokes & I feel like I'm in great condition.The workouts are hard but fun & we can always choose to go at our own pace. I've also met some wonderful people & because of them I've stuck it out thru the cold, rainy winter mos.I would recommend trying it for a week & just see how much Janine can help you become a better swimmer & a healthier person!
