Does it make difference which direction of pool you swim?

If the two ends of the pool have different depth, does it make difference to you whether you are swimming from the shallow end to deep end, or from deep to shallow? It makes difference to me. Sometimes I'm good one way, sometimes the other way. Even plain flutter kicking feels different, one way feels easier than the other.

It may have less to do with the depth than with the circulation pumps. Try swimming in a lane that is dead center some time and see what that feels like. Often one side of a pool will have the current running one way and the other side it runs the other way, with the center as the relatively calm spot.
