Loosing to someone who is all over the place,eventhough you swam a clean race.....
case in point.....my son(16) swam the 100 free this weekend and lost to a kid who has a petty strong and efficient stroke for 20 Y-and then the wall happens and his flip turn makes you wonder if he pops up in another lane, or will come to screeching halt-or both.Bless him,he is transitioning from water polo,so this turning thing is very foreign to him....but still.
silver lining-my son now has an incentive to speed up and clean up his stroke
