I'm curious why the order of IM is as it is--butterfly, back, ***, then free? It doesn't seem to be the order of speed. Also, has there been any medalist in world competitions whose "freestyle" was not front crawl (not necessarily in a medley, but maybe in just "Freestyle" competition)?

    The Chinese Zodiac has a story for how the animals got their order. Let's make one up for how the strokes got their order. :agree: Can it include a talking donkey and his BFF?
