SWIM RANT
RANT to your hearts content about aspects of
SWIMMING and SWIMMERS that bug YOU
I encourage you to be good natured and hilarious
you may find it cathartic
Ande
Here's several of mine
I don't like to swim next to walls
My hand hits the wall underwater on my freestyle outsweep and there's no lane line to pull on in backstroke
My hand sometimes hits objects on the side of pool above the water
skinny lanes
W A V Y pools
smacking hands above the rope
missing a taper
people who I swim faster than in practice who whup me in meets
getting slower
training partners and friends moving away
