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.

On average, we have 4... I don't mind circling just as long as I don't have to lap anyone. However, on my previous teams - we had 2 swimmers per lane and just split it - I got really used to that and would get annoyed when I had to circle in the event that the team had to give up a lane to the kiddies... but I'm totally used to it (circle swimming) now.
There is a certain comfort level that you get when you don't have to share a lane.
