Subject: RE: MinneMan TriathlonB-One - 2007-06-21 7:24 PM I thought that I read somewhere that a person should swim until he or she scrapes bottom with the swim stroke. Apparently it is as fast as walking in the water and much less tiring. This is what I do. I'm usually one of the very last ones to stand up, since I swim until I touch sand. I have also never dolphined. My reasoning is that a) I'd probably screw it up and look like an idiot along with getting a nose full of water, and b) I'm not at the competitive level where the few seconds it might save me is worth the extra energy drain (versus continuing to swim). |
