Swim Rant

I read all the rants with great laughter before leaving for swim practice. At swim practice I was involved in a situation I would like to rant about. I usually swim during the day, but decided to swim at night with an organized masters team. A lady in my lane took one look at me and decided that she was faster than me. So, we are doing a 600 free and I am right on her toes when she decides to switch to backstroke. I pass her and then in the next set of 3x200 she tells me that she is faster than me and demands to go in front of me. When I tell her that I think I would prefer to be in front of her, she pushes off the wall and goes. URGH! The next set was 6x100 and I pass her during the first one. I then decide to give the person in front of me a little more space and has my feet leave the wall she rams into me. Apparently, she decided that since I was giving someone a ten second space, there was no reason for her to give me any space. At the end of practice, she told me that just because I am tall does not mean that I should have swum in front of her. I feel better for ranting. I think I may just stay with noon masters.
