For anyone interested, the Women's 10k is scheduled for Wed at 9am on nbc.com (streaming live video)
For sure, the one to watch is Natalie du Toit, partial amputee... the girl is an inspiration!
two observations:
they were "sighting" about every 4-6 strokes. not sure why. 20-30 seems more typical in tri's.
lots of windmill strokes. they sure must have strong shoulders.
one thought that would make the race much more fairer: no drafting or 2 minute penalty each time, staggered start about 2 minutes apart (48 minutes total).
greatest comment from Canadian announcer was " the swimmers can see the bottom of the river/canal so it's just like swimming in a pool!!!!" :joker:
