My wife and I went to SwimFest '09 and both had a great time. :applaud:
When I met this couple in the FINIS gear lanes, they told me they lived in a small town and were not really coached.
I asked if they ever looked at the USMS Forums.
Wife looks over at the husband and he says to me, "I'm FUNKYFISH!"
Thats the way the forumites do it when they finally meet up in person.
Glad I stuck to my own name even though EVERYONE has to ask me how to pronounce it :)
AH - HAY - LEE
I agree. It takes a while to master and the downside is you will undoubtedly gulp/snort in some water during the learning process. Once you get it down, though, it's a great tool. I probably don't use mine enough, but I try to use it a little every workout.
Nice snorkel tips here. I thought that I was a moron today when I couldn't master the snorkel right away. But, I was doing with a runny nose this morning and I think that is where I was having alot of my problems. Hopefully, it will be easier tomorrow.
