Please forgive me for this, but my OCD brain needs to know:
When they put that barrier in the 50m pool to make 2x25m pools, how can you be left with 25m if the barrier is at least 1m wide?
(This matters to me, sorry.) :)
Any 50m pool that you can split into two 25y pools is done with two bulkheads. There's a little dead space of water in between them they dont let anybody swim in normally.
Depends upon which way you split it, Jeff. The Rosen Aquatic Center in Orlando ran 2 8 lane venues, but no bulkhead in the middle, just an extra lane with no stripe on the bottom and double lane-lined on each side. But they ran the lanes the width of the pool. To your point, I agree. I have never seen a 50 meter pool split into two 25 yard courses lengthwise that uses anything other than double bulkheads!
