It’s easier to breathe while doing the underswitch drill.  
It’s kind of a fun drill to do.  
Relaxing.
  
Rolling from side to side.
Reaching forward and letting my arm drift back to my side.
Taking a breath.
I took off my flippers to see how it would go without swim fins.
Not so good.
I suspect that I have become addicted to the swim fins because I do not move forward with out them.  Even though I thought I had found balance I sink like a fricken rock while not wearing them.  So I put the fins back one.
Do you think I can wear them during the triathlon?
Nobody is likely to notice the fat guy with big yellow flippers lurching toward the water at the beginning of the race.  Are they?  I mean, the way I swim, they will hardly be an advantage.

Sounds like someone's having fun.
I've seen you. You're not THAT fat.

M - So...you're admitting to my fatness then?
Oh yeah. Been there. Don't sweat it. The flipper addiction, I mean. I loved that rolling drill, too. It was a revelation.
I'm not sure if I read this blog for inspiration or a good laugh or both.
Either way, I'M addicted.
