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.

I've got you all beat. In the summer we only get three long course lanes. The other night we had 11 per lane. Tempers get short sometimes when you have that many in a lane.

Wow! 11 swimmers in a lane! Yikes. We're swimming long-course now and today we had a high of 6 in my lane. Usually it's about 4. For short course we are spoiled. We almost always split a lane, with just two people, no circle swimming required. But our masters team is growing by leaps and bounds thanks to our new great coach, so that may change.
