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.
In my lane at Villanova Masters, there are about 4 to 5 in the lane at the long course practice. When I practice with my local Y masters practice, it is 1 to 2 per lane at the high school(we get the whole pool there) or 5 to 6 a the Y(we only get three lanes there).
I heard something where this one lady at some Walnut Creek Masters or something(not sure of her name or where the program is), she swims in her own lane. Apparently, no one is allowed in her lane while there can be 10 people in another lane. Why are these people putting up with that. Plus, the coach should charge her more if they wants to swim alone. But, I heard that the woman is really fast. All I know is that we wouldn't put up with that in Philly. Hell, a bunch of us are thinking of dropping in one day and disturbing her solitude. I hope that coach is charging her more.
