OK, on to people in need of Prozac...There is nothing worse than swimming with someone so uptight about a change in an interval by 5 seconds or you beating them when they don't want to be beaten or you swimming breaststroke when that's what you need to work on or whatever. I had someone scream at me once and then get out of the pool and throw her fins across the deck before jumping in another lane because she said I left 5 seconds early on an interval.
Thats when you pull the old fake pushoff maneuver and make her go early by mistake haha.
Your post just cements my attitude towards never training with a team again. Its things like that I'll never miss about team practice.
