Swim Clip

So, you might know what a swim clip is... but just in case you don't, it's a more aesthetically pleasing phrase for "nose plug".

Yeah, I swim with one. Today, however, I decided to try without. Let's just say that was a bad idea. At least until I get my technique down.

Swam for half an hour today. Working on breathing every third stroke, which I think will bode well especially as I lengthen my stroke. I swim about 26 strokes in 25 meters, but when I think about lengthening my stroke, I easily pare that down to 22. For the next several swims I will work on those two things - steady breathing and long stroke.

... and I won't neglect my lovely swim clip.
