But I don’t ever see that happening. Lanes have always been a prime since 2007. Would love to see a 6am lap start, yes, it’s cold getting out in January but one can suck it up.
And what’s up with those stupid combo swims, put in all the lanes. There are over 90 neighborhood and family swimming pools where people can water walk and hang around floating on noodles and socializing. Lap swimmers need a regulation length 25 yard pool with lanes and swim flags, which is only possible at the sports pools.
