stuff like
get your cap wet before you put it on.
keep your racing suit dry before you race.
Don't warm up in your racing suit
don't breathe on the last stroke into a turn
or your first stroke out of a turn

Jonathan,
I wasn't going to reply to your post, where you inquired about what records Fortress had, which read as petty and unnecessary, but this comment shows that there is a level of maturity lacking here.
Fortress posted a simple fact to which you again decided to post a petty comment to.
I mean, really.
"With over 3500+ posts you must be a very good swimmer. I'm obviously not in the same league, with only 160+ posts."
What's next? My dad can beat your dad?
Where in Fortress' comment did she attack your post count or you at all? Lighten up. I know you are an accomplished competitive swimmer and have set Canadian Masters records, but in all honesty, so what? Does that make you somehow a better or worse person than someone else? No, it just makes you a faster swimmer than others.
So lighten up, life's too short for stuff like this. I would suggest that you re-read this post:
"You win? cool.. Do you have USMS records?
Don't get me wrong, the actual race, moments before
the whistle, certainly being hyped is useful...
Just not weeks before... "
And before you think that I'm the only one, check out the comments that that post generated. You may have meant to say something different but if you did, it missed the mark.
