    I like to do triathlons in the summer time just for a little variety. I am not in the best of shape and diffently not in the same shape as most of the other triathletes I compete against. Yet when I swim I find myself finishing the swim in a faster time then most of the other competitors. When it comes to biking I fall way behing the ones that I swam faster then. This comes down to technique. It can not be that I am in better shape then the others. Ion your comparisions to triathletes almost proves that technique plays a major factor in how fast you swim. As for arguing about size. It may play a factor but how can my small five year old swim faster then other five and six year olds that are much bigger then her? I beleive it comes down once again to technique.
