  • I guess I didn't watch any of the backstroke events. So you do your start while the other guy/gal is still in the water? That is weird. I suppose it wasn't an issue for the 50 back event, which I didn't watch. I swam the 200. Having someone next to you for your start isn't as weird as after your heat, when you're waiting next to someone else while they're doing their start.
