  • So disappointing for Chloe Sutton... She moves across the country to train, really dedicates herself to OW and whammo. I'm sure someone will tell me not to feel sorry for her because that's just the nature of OW swimming, but I still do. I agree with Greg; I wouldn't want to swim a race surrounded by impenetrable jelly fish. Is it normal for OW to be quite so assault like? I mean I know you can't avoid flying elbows and an occasional kick. But it seemed like some swimmers were complaining of overly aggressive tactics by other swimmers?
