As the novel coronavirus pandemic continues to keep most people stuck at home, swimmers worldwide are trying to find new ways to stay in shape. Many pools are closed, but whether it’s in endless pools, smaller-than-25-meters-long pools, other bodies of water, or completely water-less, there are still plenty of ways that swimmers have been keeping in shape.
While the Olympics and preceding trial meets worldwide have been pushed off to next year, many swimmers are yearning to get back into the pool with their teammates and focus on the road ahead. For now, they’ll have to do their own workouts in their own spaces.
