I'm happy with the progress I have made after about 5 weeks in the pool. However, as a newbie, I feel terrible for the other swimmer that gets stuck with me in their lane. One program I joined is made up of moderately serious swimmers and the club I joined is a 5:30-6:30 AM group of serious swimmers.
All the swimmers are very pleasant and helpful, but am I'm I viewed as a major distraction and barely tolerated? And if so, am I better off swimming by myself until I can keep up? I'm hesitant to go to the Sat. morning 5:30 club training because there may be more than 2 swimmers per lane. Thanks for your honest answers. Steve
Keep going.
One team I practice with on occasion will set aside an entire lane for an elderly woman who used swimming to recover from rhumatoid arthritis. No one ever complained in the least. (Probably worried about thunderbolts from above if they were so churlish.)
