How often do you breathe in an open water triathlon swim versus a 1500 meter race in the pool? I recently watched the professional San Diego ITU triathlon and noticed that the athletes tend to breathe quite frequently. Is this the norm? Am I putting myself at a disadvantage by not breathing as frequently?
The problem is you have to lift your head to sight. How often do good OW swimmers lift their heads to sight? I find it very hard to swim straight without a black line on the bottom of the pool to follow.
