Hi Midaged,
Welcome to the world of swimming mate - its great to read about how keen you are to learn and have fun. Here's a couple of links for you to answer your question:
1. www.kurtz.se/.../index.html - a good collection of short clips from the Athens Olympics.
2. www.swimsmooth.com/downloads.htm - a clip from our website of Bill Kirby (Ian Thorpe's teammate and Sydney Olympic Gold Medallist in the 4x200 freestyle). He's got a really nice smooth stroke which is great for visualiation.
3. www.swimsmooth.com/freearticles.htm - a collection of swim articles which you should find useful for some further reading. I can particularly recommend the first section on improving your breathing in the water during the freestyle stroke.
Anyway, best wishes and I hope you really get into your swimming!
Cheers
Paul
