If you know it is going to be hot and sunny, make sure you have sunscreen and water. If there is a chance of thunderstorms later on you can still go swimming. However, make sure you have a plan for inclement weather.

A recent study conducted in the U.K. found that chlorine works quickly against the coronavirus that causes COVID-19👍👍

“We performed these experiments at our high containment laboratories in London,” virologist and Imperial College London professor Wendy Barclay is quoted as saying in a news release. “Under these safe conditions, we are able to measure the ability of the virus to infect cells, which is the first step in its transmission.”

The study, which hasn’t been published in a peer-reviewed journal yet, established that “1.5mg per litre of free chlorine with a pH between 7 and 7.2 reduced the infectivity of the virus by more than 1000-fold within 30 seconds.”

In the U.S., the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommend that public pools and other treated swimming waters be carefully monitored so that the pH level—a measurement of how acidic or basic the water is—remains between 7.2 and 7.8. (These measurements are based on a scale of 1 to 14, with 1 being very acidic and 14 being very basic.) A reading of 7 is considered neutral, so the CDC recommends keeping pool water slightly on the basic, or alkaline, side of neutral.

The release reported that further “testing of different free chlorine and pH ranges confirmed that chlorine in swimming pool water was more effective with a lower pH— which is in line with current guidance for swimming pool operation.” This means pools at the bottom of the CDC's recommended pH levels would provide maximum protection against the coronavirus.

Pool fitness as a form of resistance training should not be overrated. Although it won’t feel like it, water is 800% denser than air, which means you’re working muscles essential to running with every stroke.

Remaining horizontal at all times crafts a strong core, while constant flutter kicks work your entire posterior chain of muscles from your glutes down, helping muscular endurance and enabling you to create power during a run.🍄

Just as one of weight training’s key benefits is strengthening bones as well as muscles, the constant water resistance acts in the same way to shore up your body’s defense against fractures and fragility.😊
