I do a good bit of lap swimming (see goals - lower left) so I have lots of time to think about it. I routinely see athletic folks who can't swim, or swim poorly + often wonder why I find it so easy - I'm not particularly athletic. This blog is about what I'm learning about swimming dynamics + some fun stuff too.
For your safety, all posts + comments are musings + tips that have worked for me - opinion only. For the record, I strongly suggest following Red Cross swim-safety protocols.

Cool Swimming Article
Took my kids to the dentist earlier this week and stumbled across a great swimming article - can't read too much about swimming can we? Check out Outside Magazine's August 2006 issue cover story (yes, a swimming article made the cover of a major magazine - so cool!). It's about two guys who decided swim between a number of islands in the Bahamas with all their possessions in tow on a surf board. Now that's a vacation - and if I had to guess, they probably had all their expenses paid too! Best part, they outdid the guys in the support boat - it sank! (The link above has some info on this story).
