As the holidays approach, what's more important...

Time out of the pool, or...

Time in the pool.

Both... as always! Once you've learned how to balance both, life is easy and fun. I am looking forward to swimming on Christmas day, for the first day in my life, and then to meet my friends and party with them. That's how my entire Holidays look like: swimming + party = a lot of fun.

With holidays and NEM Championships approaching, time management in the pool becomes more important. Seems like every practice is a key workout. Time management out of the pool becomes more important, too.

Holidays usually mean more time in the pool...but I guess for Christmas holidays everyone makes a little exception here and there.

Well...i'd vote TIME OUTTA Pool.
Since we had spend too much time in the pool during those non season days...;)

I was just telling everyone how much I will swim at holiday time since I have off work and I will have a lot of time, when my coach told me that I have to rest... I am not happy with that, coach, but if you say so I'll do it :( . So any ideas what is to do when you do not swim, do not work 8h a day and your friends are overseas for the holidays?! I think I will be very bored...
