Rat maze?

Swimming laps tonight was like being a cog in a machine or a rat in a very crowded maze. There were ~6 people per 25 yard lane swimming in counter-clockwise formation.

It reminded me of swimming at the IMA in college, but this time I was less angry at the other swimmers. ;-)

Despite the crowd and the headache I've mysteriously acquired again post-swim, I feel great about reaching my 3/4 mile goal even after a long work week!
