Are you swimming too fast in the fast lane?
The gold medal-winning swimmer David Wilkie has told PM that a lifeguard was wrong to complain about his etiquette at his local swimming pool.
The 62-year-old, who won gold in the 200m breaststroke at the 1976 Montreal Olympic Games, was accused of swimming too fast and without care for other users.
But he told Carolyn Quinn: "I think I was doing exactly what any swimmer - be him an Olympic swimmer or not -would do in the same circumstances, and that is to swim to the best of your ability."
