Or you could go without (provided you don't mind the effects of chlorinated eyes for several hours following your swim).<BR/><BR/>Comm's, don't they leave a lane line in to segregate the activities?Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07300094483282054900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26099261.post-1163823835898131302006-11-17T22:23:00.000-06:002006-11-17T22:23:00.000-06:00I have heard that many times before. :) Water aero...I have heard that many times before. :) Water aerobics can be the bane of a swimmers' existence, especially during the battle over water temps. But it makes for good open water training. ;)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10569741824004570468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26099261.post-1163811642730658412006-11-17T19:00:00.000-06:002006-11-17T19:00:00.000-06:00Sharing a lane with two or more good practice for ...Sharing a lane with two or more good practice for drafting.

I don't swim straight. I find that..when I swim with my eyes closed, I will swim like i swim in open water, not straight. <BR/><BR/>My best experience in dealing with choppiness was one time i did a open swim with a class. It was white caps like mad and I felt like I was in a washing machine. It felt good :).Cliffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03227378544813320248noreply@blogger.com
