I swam regularly (3-4 x/week) for approximately 5 years and had laid off for the past 7 months. Thankfully I'm back in the pool again. I am relatively healthy and have missed almost no work. However, whenever I get out of the pool I have cold symptoms--congestion, running nose, sneezing, etc. I know I probably swallow my share of water, and I've learned to live with these nuisances, but are these symptoms common for others?

I'm not sure if I'm executing my turns fast enough, but I am exhaling in them. Even if I learned a faster method I'd naturally slow down at turn 10 in my 300s.
I learned right away that body type, weight, etc. don't really matter. I've seen heavy guys outswim rails and even I have out swum/swam bulked up guys. So I'll try the plugs and see if there are real differences.
So for all those plug wearers: do all the other kids make fun of you because of the nose plugs?
