My 14 year old daughter just recently swam a 50 freestyle at 24.55. Unbelievably she took 9 breaths!!! Doesn't that seem like a lot of breathing for a 50? Does anyone have any imput?
thanks,

Your daughter might enjoy this.
The girls are swimming roughly her same speed.
I showed this to my kids for them to get a look at some serious underwater work in the 50 (Lane 4).
She took one big gulp before the wall...dolphin kicked like crazy...and paddled back with no breathing.
Loved seeing that the good old fashioned track start is still alive.

Great video. Thanks for posting. Was it just me or did the eventual winner have the worst start off the blocks? Looked like she was behind until after her turn and SDKs. If she fixed the reaction time to the buzzer and her start, she would have been even faster.
