I was wondering how people calculated open water distances? I started to swim in Long Beach, CA and was wondering if there was something that can help me figure out distances, for example, if there was a standard distance between life guard stations or beach bathrooms (I tried talking to the lifeguards but no one knew :confused: )

Don’t get me started on triathletes propensity to sprint the first 200 meters of the swim. How many marathon runners sprint the first mile, before settling into their pace?
How many marathoners go out too fast? Lots of them.
But the alternate question is, how many marathoners draft when running?
It also drives me quite nuts but I have adjusted to it.
