Maybe someone can help me out - I swim in the morning then rush to work. Practice ends about 30 minutes before I begin work, so "rush" is the operative word.

By the way Beginner Tri is a great site with all kinds of info about swimming/bikeing/running

Many people who run/bike well have trouble with the swim. I wonder when a swim- bike-run event will be in the olympics. It should be as well as open water swimming which there doing.
