“I swam 4,000 yards today. It was only two laps.” 😉
Behold the world’s largest swimming pool. And no, it’s not a hoax. One lap would be the swim leg of a 1/2 IM! Click on the pic for the story and more pictures.
Although I find it funny that it’s a saltwater pool, separated by 40 yards of sand from more saltwater.
Personally, I’ll swim OW.

Maybe some days the surf is up and so they have a backup?
🙂
Wow, that’s awesome! Why can’t they build that somewhere that isn’t already surrounded by swimmable water?
I don’t know, cold water, sharks, yucky seaweed in your swimsuit, I might take the pool over the real thing. Well, at least sometimes. At least you know how far you swam.
Bolder has this on his site today too! You both must have googled “big swimming pools” or something! Heh!
Wow. The water is so clear and beautiful, I don’t know if I could resist swimming in it at least once. But it’s not like the ocean off the coast of Chile looks disgusting, either.
I wonder how many swim up bars they have in that swimming pool. One lap of the pool and you might sauced. Speaking of such activity, they must really have a big pee filter for that pool.
wow! I wonder if I could get one of those in my backyard?
That is sweet. I need that for my backyard.
I bet that pool has one hell of an aid station in it, namely…the bar.
