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?
I got DQ'd on the first Masters event I ever swam. It was for a 100 Backstroke. I was so new to swimming, I took an extra half pull before the turn. It was the best thing to ever happen to my backstroke. I have drilled those turns, so it will never happen again!
