pool swimming

hi guys, anyone know what the story is with sprints in swimming pools(as opposed to open water). Is it laned, so that you pretty much can't pass people out unless you do it very quickly (what with oncoming traffic)? Thinking of entering the Stena line tri, which is in a swimming pool. thanks

Each race will have it's own rules but generally if you get touched on the foot during a length, you have to wait at the next wall and let the faster swimmer past you. Similarly if you are the faster swimmer, touch the foot in front of you and they should let you past at the next wall.
