You know what you need to do. At the start of practice, find out who’s doing a timed swim, and team up with someone who’s doing the same distance as you. Then figure out heats, always leaving at least one lane for the people who aren’t doing a timed swim. Those not doing the timed swim will need flippers, so ask the guard to bring them out if they’re not on deck.
