Another newbie question: how do you keep count of how many strokes/lengths/laps?

When I run, I well count on my fingers and it works pretty well, but I can't quite as easily have my fingernails pressing into my skin as I swim. Thanks in advance, B

  • The best way is to use the pace clock. Just glance at it on your first breath coming out of a turn. If you know your pace you should be able to figure out where you're at. For example, if you hold about 1:30 per 100, and the pace clock tells you you're at 3:00, it's pretty easy to realize you've gone 200 yards.
