Comments:

My SO video taped my swim and I saw a lot of things I need to correct. I was hesitant a lot at the end each lane due to breast strokers, I was afraid of being kicked in the face.
What would you do differently?:

Start ignoring the folks that pile up at the end of the lane and breastrokers. Waiting on these folks suck up a lot of your time.
