This is probably the stroke I should learn to master: flip onto my back and just flounder slowly to the finish .




Lol that's what my wife said too. It's not even about the effort of training for this, it's the "$83.94 waste of money" hahaha
oh and dont forget with open water swim there is no kick off every 25m
