Are Triathletes worth the dues they pay toward Masters Swimming?
I say we force all Triathletes to spend one day a week in the sprint lane, one day a week doing stroke (i.e. IM) work, and then make them focus on their starts and turns.
This invasion needs to be controlled.... :-)

I think I must be lucky to have such great lane mates. We've been together long enough now that we just sort of always end up in the correct order depending on the set. If one of us bonks in a hard set, they'll just politely move over. We have our kick leaders, our IM leaders, sprint, mid, long etc leaders. Plus, our coach doesn't take any grief, he sees a laggard and he corrects that pretty quickly.
When I read some folks have lane mates who can't read a clock or won't move over, it makes me realize just how good I have it with our little team.
