Ouch! I came in dead last,...3 hr, 31 minutes. 42 minute miles. The guy who won did it is 1 hr. 44 minutes.
In May I took a Total Immersion Swim Clinic and have changed the way I swim...2 beat kick,.. neutral head,..trying to streamline and such,..but my time was over a half hour longer than last year. One thing I will say is that I could have swam further,..I wasn`t as tired as last year.
Should I continue with this method of swimming? I never was a fast swimmer, I only enter races because it is exciting.

IMHO yes. The technique approach from TI is sound, but technique alone doesn't make you faster. If you ramp up your speed and intensity of training while holding onto your technique, you'll ideally swim faster.
