What lap was that...?

I swim lots and lots of long distance and often find myself drifting off in thought while staring at the little tiles on the bottom of the pool. Doing sets of 200s or 300s tends not to be a problem...it's the 500 and 1000 yds that I loose concentration. When I start concentrating on technique is when I'm most likely to forget what lap I was on! Is there a gizmo out there to help me out? I envision something I can hang on the wall that would advance with my flipturn. Does anyone have any tricks to help them out with the counting of laps? Thanks!

  • I don't mean to sound too simplistic, however, my advice would be to follow a good lane leader. That's what I do because I cannot count beyond ~300 yards! When swimming longer distances during workout, my lane always designates the best distance swimmer to lead because s/he is best at keeping count. ;) -GG
