This is really annoying to me, but why does it seem the first option for most rec swimmers is to split the lane when there are 2 swimmers. I always say we should swim circle if I am in the lane and someone else is coming in, but if I am coming in the person usually wants to split the lane. It is so unnatural to be swimming on the left side of the lane.

I prefer to split the lane mainly because most of the people who swim when I do are of such disparate speed levels it's the only way to maintain my sanity. I swim verrry early so usually I have my own lane or only have to split the lane for a few minutes before I'm done and on my way home.
