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.

Looking Forward
Now that Martin Strel is done with his Amazon swim, I've got to refocus this blog back to its main point - swimming dynamics. Things sort of got sidetracked by the fun part of this blog and apologize to any of you who were seeking illuminating copy on how to make swimming easy. Martin's 3000+ miles in less than 70 days is certainly is one solution - that is, a strong current and more than a little hard-headedness. Sorry, but future posts won't make you go that fast. I'll have to look more at Michael Phelps and others to get some ideas about how to swim fast without a current. Hmmm, that gives me some ideas.
