2 /5 Joe: Nothing but hypocrites here, you need a mask to walk in and that is fine, just for show but on the equipment side, you are not allowed to take it off. That is very dangerous, if you are doing heavy weights and cardio it is freaking hard to breath! I never used the pool, but looking over to it, you see people walking around it or standing in the pool talking to each other less than 6 ft without a damn mask. They are going to allow that on one side, but not the other. I dont care if you wear one or not but if you really want to be safe, the pool shouldnt even be open.
