LinsD I'm now wondering if shorter lengths lose you time by slowing to turn more often, or if you gain more from more frequent strong push-offs  There must be an optimum pool length for this sort of effort. Nice effort Dvorak! Hope you had a good holiday. |

Lol Dvorak. You gain, not loose Cas. Short course (25m) times are quicker than long course (50m). OW is slower again as no push offs. So Eric probably would have been a bit quicker in a short course pool. He'd never seen a 10m pool till he arrived at the Olympics. |

As well as the push, the swum distance is shorter. The middle of the swimmer stops about a metre from the end.

LindsD give it a go, see how you go. I think I'd get dizzy spinning around that often. |

I did a feature request re badge filter for anyone that's interested. It's feature 1852. I can't work out how to do a link to it. |

He he. Yep, very pleased to have ticked off my nearly 2 hours, nearly 3 mile swim. Next target is a 3 hour swim. Then it’s Coniston. 😮 |
