How Many Swimmers Per Lane

Just wondering how many swimmers most of you share a lane with during masters workouts. People around here are starting to get indignant when they have to share a lane with someone else during a masters workout. I don't understand it. I was wondering if this is a national phenomenon.

  • our masters group is so small only 4, but we swim with the HS kids that don't want to train 7 days a week, so we're 15 total in the group and we get 3 lanes. we usually have 3-4 per lane. we usually have 2-3 work outs to choose from, so it's happened that we have had 2 + 5 + 4 per lane since only two of us wanted to work distance. towards the end of the school year we were 2-3 per practice, but decided to swim in the same lane, since some people like to swim on the tales of others, and some people need to be pushed to swim fast.
