Hi all, I remember reading a discussion here about what counted as a "lap" (one length versus a round trip), and there didn't seem to be a consensus. I'm interested to know the statistics. So please take the poll :)

my vote...
a lap is a round trip, i.e. 2 lengths; being lapped does not mean you are only 1 length behind
in usage though, lap and length mean the same thing....so why try to change the world
PS....this must be a long debate. I asked this in swim class in high school (about 1965). Was told that a lap was 2 lengths.
