I was just reading this blog:chuckiev.blogspot.com/.../swimming-thoughts-galore.html
This guy claims that he never swam before in his life. At first it took him 36 minutes to swim 1500 meters. After only one year he could swim that in LESS than half the time.
After 17 years of swimming I can't swim 1500 meters in less than 18 minutes. Either I'm doing something wrong or that guy is full of.....
Is it possible to get that fast THAT FAST?
I wont say who, but an Olympian claimed he was going to swim an openwater 1500 in 13 minutes to a group of star-struck triathletes. Maybe he was planning on drafting, I hear you can get some amazing results from that strategy.
There are some OW events where this is theoretically possible for top swimmers, rivers and ocean with a serious current. But, I think this guy is full of it.
