GMU is definitely confusing.
I noticed that last week after coming back from Rutgers. They still had GMU set up from Tom Dolan meet so we were swimming in the shallow end like at zones and the sprint meet. It was the first time I had ever had a problem swimming into the bulkhead there. I think what threw me off is how deep it still is and you can see clear under the bulkhead. If I remember correctly, Rutgers was way more shallow where the bulkhead was. I remember looking at it before every turn trying to figure out my escape plan during the 1500 and I had decided that I would just go under it and no one would even realize I was gone and in the warm down pool.
The walls at GMU are pretty slippery. I remember having a few bad turns when swimming the other way and actually looking forward to having the bulkhead at one end rather than the wall.
