Annoying lap swim last night
What exactally is the proper way to act in a lap swim? Way overcrowded swim last night. I had to share a lane with 8 people, mostly highschool kids. Doesn't the highschool swim team have their own workouts? I know they were on the team cause they were wearing the caps. Anyways, I was in the "medium speed" lane. These two girls were doing sprints while I was doing at least 200 yards at a time. They would come right up on my feet, then pass me right before the wall, cutting me off. Then they would stop at the wall and I would have to move around them. This was happening all night. Then a "couple" (since they were making out in the pool!) took up the corner of the lane almost the whole hour. I overhead the girl saying she could only manage 500 yards so the rest of the hour she hung out in the corner of the lane while her boyfriend would come and go and with 8 people in the lane and the two of them hanging out there most of the time, there was no more space for anyone to take a rest. And to top off my swim, I keep my lap pass in the plastic bag with my workout under my bouy. Someone swiped it. I still had 4 swims left on my pass (at $5.25 a shot I was ******). Mad mojo swim last night!!!
