In the Olympics everyone does flip turns in the 1500m but I was wondering whether many ordinary mortals resort to open turn for longer distances in the pool? I think I am quicker flipping in a short distance race
but it feels as though as I am going slightly into oxygen debt, so I'm not sure they're beneficial over long distances. (I am experimenting but I don't do enough long distance races to have much data.)
I went 5sec faster than last year in SCM- 2:17. It was the first time I tried the walls that way, and I feel like it helped me.
That's a nice time! Good swimming!
I agree that in the 200 back, O2 management is important.
