I recently posted a question about racing and received a lot of great answers so here is another question. I am about to participate in my first race (in a pool) and I am worried about being disqualified now. What are some of the common mistakes I need to be aware of? Turns maybe?
You can touch the bottom as long as you do not push off to gain forward movement. If you are choking - stand up , regain composure & pull your legs up off the bottom ---- then start swimmingYou may never see this in a race,but it is legal.
