Subject: RE: Having trouble counting laps in the pool?I've done that.
Doing the "alphabet" for 100s/250s is another eay way.
A, B, C, D, E.
Really, looking at your overall time, you should be able to see how many "250s" you've done.
I did the penny thing too when I first started, but it's really not necessary. Keeping track of your yardage isn't rocket surgery.
$60 for a wall counter, I've seen the finger counter for $25. Why are they taking advantgae of people that can't count? = )
Again, if you're swimming a long set, just break it into 250s. It shouldn't be too hard to to count to 5 (each 50 counts as 1 in a 25y pool ). If you lose count, your overall time will tell you. |
