    Is the gallop because of their breathing pattern? It seems to me that these swimmers are breathing to one side only during their races and this seems to accentuate the galloping motion. I think so. I am so glad I forced myself to bilateral breathe on my 0-1650...it was hard work at first but when I did my 200FR, if I needed to breathe I didn't have to rush to get onto my "good" side. I took breaths as needed and then on the last 50 sprinted up a bit and breathed right side only...but hey I'm no frontcrawler...
