It’s HOW far?

A question came up while I was getting my official gym membership (as compared to the temp) this past week when I asked how many laps on the track for 1 mile. That was easy to get an answer, 11laps.  Sounded good to me.  OK, how about the number of laps in the pool for a mile. No one knew. Apparently it hadn’t been asked before.  The lifeguards didn’t know either. After some quick math it came out to 44 laps (down and back). Holy jeebus!  I think I’ll stick to running 11 laps and swimming for 30 minutes.
