Hi everyone,
I just joined the site and have to say great group. Was a stalker until today.
I wish I had the time to join a masters, especially after hearing of the astronomical improvements people make, immediately after joining such groups.
My question is, aside from reading books and the net. What else would you all recommend to improve my form. I started swimming with a purpose 3 years ago, did a few OW triathlons and finally did my first dedicated OW 1mi swim. OMG! - What an eye opener. I finished 102 of 108.
I have a new goal of moving up to at least a middle of the pack (preferrably front of pack), one day....in this life time.
I've come a long way since I started, when I was winded after 25yd but this race, this past week proved how much further I have to go still.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I have never done OW, but it seems to me if you are going to swim OW, it might be good to find a place to practice it every once in a while. Having no walls has really got to take its toll so swimming in real conditions would be helpful.
