Is there some standard distance from the walls where the backstroke flags are strung up?

  • They probably advertise it as being "Olympic-size." :) I am always baffled at how others define an "Olympic" pool. :confused: A 25 yard pool is "Olympic" to most non-swimmers. :rolleyes: They seem to forget how big a REAL Olympic pool is and that the U.S.A. is one of the only countries measuring pools in "yards." They move the deck chairs up to the edge of the pool, of course. :lmao:
