[Sportsandrec] A couple cardio things watery and non

[Lori M. Miller]

Joe,

If I'm at the pool and the lanes are all occupied, I put down my stuff and 
then walk over to the end of a lane that I want to join in on the fun. I try 
and listen if is sounds like there are 1, 2,  or 3 swimmers. Ideally if 
there is only one swimmer, then when they reach the end of the lane where I 
am I ask if we can split the lane. By this I mean we each keep one side and 
swim down and back on that side and don't swim in the round. This way I 
don't have to worry about judging someones speed, etc.

If it is too conjested and crowded, I'll locate the lifeguard and ask them 
if there is a lane that only has one person.

Gotta get to the deck first so you have your pick of the lane. *smile*
Lori
