One 100 free to go in set. Two open lanes.(no lane lines in pool) Noodler comes over to stand in my lane to talk with friend. Pool is set at 85 degrees cause all the noodlers say it is to cold otherwise. I complain to guard, am told, "well there are a lot more of them then there are lap swimmers" Wont be if they keep this up. UGH! :frustrated:
Similar situation occured at my Y between my swim team kids and the noodlers. When it was brought to our attention that there was no charge for the noodlers class while my kids parents were paying $45 per month. We won the battle but had to give up one lane to lap swimmers when they show.
I usually put my masters swimmers in with the lap swimmers when I can. There is one guy who I swear just barely floats along, I wouldn't call it lap swimming by any means. Luckly he shows up at the very end of our practices and I try to encourage him to wait till we are done. My team would CLOBBER him!
