When I was swimming the 100 fly this morning, my shoulder decided we were done about 60 yards in. I really wanted to stop so that I didn't hurt it, but I didn't know the proper approach. I ended up just finishing and trying to keep my stroke legal, but it was slow and painful. Should I have just stopped and swam back to the wall?

I was put on a medley relay once and they had someone else actually swim my backstroke leg; they put me on Fly even though I told them I couldn't swim anything past a 50. It was a 4x100 medley relay. I got out of the pool at the 75 meter mark; couldn't finish it. I never had to swim that fly leg again. The same thing happened with similarity only they put me on the breastroke which I completed, but I got DQd for something I did wrong with that stroke. Didn't have to swim that stroke ever again on a relay also.
Moral of the story: people should listen when someone says they can't do something!!
