i have been reading a lot of the posts herein.... and it has occurred to me... (and this will surely betray my newbie-ness) there are an awful lot of abbreviations and terms used that leave me essentially having no clue what was said.... is there a book out there someplace "swimese for dummies" or the like? i speak several languages, sadly swimese is not yet among them.....
i can swim two miles comfortably, and have energy left over after to go run three miles... but decode the posts on this board?....
any reference/resource suggestions gladly accepted...
thanks.
be,

Alright you guys...put up or shut-up. Holy Spitz! If I can do Bugfly and IM at a meet..you can all attempt the divine...and swim how the Goodhew intended.
If you call yourself a swimmer, you can do a little of all the strokes, for
Wilkie's sake !
Bone up on your mythology, Rich. All sorts of bad things happen to mortals who mess with the divine.
Thanx Fort, I thought it was some sort of goofing off or playing around.
How come you did not thank me I told you where to get the best noodles at Oddles of Noodles in Hamilton Ontario
Because I'm a Floridian and going to Canada in the winter, just ain't happenin'.:rofl:
Actually, I'm not a noodle fan.
What?! A tri with no carbs? Or were you referring to the noodles at the pool?
I may have to hop over the breaststroke lane if my shoulder pain doesn't go away ... freakin' great timing ... two more weeks until taper and I am jump starting ... :shakeshead:
I may get this checked out tomorrow ...
Rich, I'm swimming 75 yards of breaststroke at state next month ... the 50 ***, and a 25 in the 100 IM ... it will certainly be laughable ...
You should have seen my fly tonight OMG I was laughing when I stopped it ws so bad...
