  • I had the inverse today, when I got there:

    • 3 people in the breast stoke only lane, doing breast stroke slowly
    • 3 people in the slow lane, going slowly
    • 3 people in the medium lane, going medium
    • 2 people in the fast lane

    I get in and I'm doing ~110s/100m, not fast but faster than the two women in the fast lane. I was catching one every 4 lengths and the other every 6 lengths or so. They were waiting at the end for me to go again when I was about to catch up with them and I could see them looking over at the next lane probably wondering if they should move down to medium, I simply said "there's more than enough space for the 3 of us, they're nice wide lanes, and you don't need to wait for me if I catch you, just do your swim and I'll find the right time to get past."

  • If there hasn't been any float throwing or deliberate underwater kicks then I don't count it as a swim.
