I was 815 yards into a 900 yard pull when my head knocks into the swimmer with whom I was sharing a lane. He motions to a third guy who had jumped into our lane and started circle swimming. When the third guy swam up to me, I said, sorry I'm doing a specific routine. No circle swim. He says he doesn't understand. I reiterate, we are swimming two to a lane and I am doing intervals that don't work with a group. He gets all pissed off, mumbles whatever dude and exits our lane.
For context, there were two other lanes that were pretty full of folks circle swimming. There was one other lane (in addition to mine) that was less full, so four total. I understand my lane had less traffic and could've accommodated more swimmers, but that's why I show up early to do the exact workout that my coach planned for me. Am I in the wrong?
