Never seen that before...

Got to the pool this morning. Nothing really to report from the swim. Some drill, some kick, a 400 at race pace. Felt good but a bit tired and was starving the whole workout. Was up WAY before the alarm so doddled around the house for a bit before I had to go. One of the local swim clubs trains at the same time on Wednesday mornings. I don't know what kind of a set they were doing but in between one of our sets, I heard a funny sound from two lanes over. I looked over and one of the kids was heaving into the drain!! Nothing was coming out but he was trying to get himself out of the pool, he crawled over to another drain, stood up and then barfed all over the deck!! Chuck...how bout a Barf Daquiri!! Oh my GOD!! And let's just say he must have been drinking some red gatorade or powerade or something along those lines....I could not SMELL it from where I was or I would have had a sympathy puke...but I wasn't hungry anymore.

Disgusting is the word. Fortunately, I read Jenna's post first, and was forewarned. I can just imagine how Susi is going to react. There's a big sign at the pools here they have to close it if anyone has any non-mucous leakage. They don't phrase it that way of course, but that's what they mean.
