Quote in the local newspaper from the high school state champion in the 100 yard freestyle (conducted in a 25 yard pool):
"On the third lap of my 100, I breathed twice in a row and I shouldn't have done that."

If lap didn't mean 2 lengths why do we say we "lapped" another person when we are 2 above their total?
The counter example is if a lap is 2 lengths then why does a "lap counter" record the number of lengths?
