[quote=Anonymous]You can if needed. First thing to know is to seed yourself (i.e. line up) towards the back of the swim start so that faster swimmers are all up front. Pool swims are usually what they call a snake swim. Up one lane, then either back in that same lane and then go under the rope line. Or up one lane and then under the rope line and back down the other. If you need to stop, stop at the end of the lane and stay out of the way of swimmers going under the lane line. You also definitely don't have to do freestyle the whole time! Take your time. Breaststroke if you need to in order to get more air or do an easier stroke. Congratulations and good luck! It's an awesome sport, and I wish I had as much time to train for it now as I did pre-kids.[/quote]
