Here's a thread for the ladies to discuss anything that relates to women and swimming. For example, feel free to discuss how disgustingly ugly fastskins are, how the "curse" can kill a meet, how suits don't fit, how swimming wrecks your hair, how hormones unhinge you, etc.
I did a triathlon once in just my tri shorts and a jog bra. As soon as I started the swim, the bra filled with water and became like a parachute. It was floating who knows how far away from my body, and I think reached my waist at one point. I had to lurk underwater to make sure I had it back on properly before surfacing!!! :blush:
:rofl:
Your description brings back memories of similar events while ocean swimming as a teenager. Of course, I was wearing a teenie-weenie-bikini back then. There was always the risk of a big wave hitting me from behind while going back to shore, which could easily cause a major wardrobe malfunction (without the help of someone like J.T.). I still have a habit of grabbing the straps of my swimsuit when I stand up in the pool during workouts. I guess old habits die hard.
Please note: J.T. stands for Justin Timberlake, not Jim Thornton!
