Swimming tonight!

Well done to Shelley, Lynley and Lois who all completed the 10km Striders Summer Series last night! Top effort!

Tonight we start our swim sessions at Ngawahtu Pool. The pool entrance (at the end of Ngawhatu Rd, off Suffolk Rd) is kept locked by gate, so if you are running late for any of the sessions, you will need to park outside the entrance and walk through to the pool.

I will be at the gate to let vehicles in between 6.20pm and 6.25pm tonight, then will lock the gate. If you arrive after that time, you will need to park on Ngawhatu Road and then walk through to the pool. One of the conditions of our use of the pool is that this gate is kept locked at all times. I will then pop back out to the gate to allow those arriving later for their 7.00pm swim start to drive in (between 6.50pm and 6.55pm), and will then pop out just after 7.00pm to allow those from their 6.30pm start to exit with their vehicles.

If you are not sure how to find Ngawhatu Rd, easiest way is probably to turn left at the lights at Stoke (if driving from Nelson), head down to the roundabout at the end of the road, turn right, and travel along this road until you see Ngawhatu Rd on your left.

Just a reminder again that Ngawhatu Pool is heated, so please bring a bottle of water with you to sip on during your session.

Group 1 will be using the area of the pool closest to the changing rooms, Group 2 will be on the opposite side of the pool and Group 3 will be in the middle lane of the pool.

I have emailed the groupings to you all.

See you tonight!
