Amazing Audible Book
I could see everyone swimming around me while I slowly waded through the water. I was noticing all of the kids enjoying their hot summer day taking the time to cool off at the swimming pool and getting the most enjoyment out of it. You could see them smiling, laughing, splashing, jumping and swimming around in the cool blue water

Must Listen
When we got to the swimming pool you could hear the children laughing and splashing in the water. You could smell the chlorine in the water from the parking lot. Walking up to the red brick building with the tall fence surrounding the swimming pool, we hurried to get inside.

Lovely Audio Book
The second error is reducing the amount of recovery between swims on the first workout. Triathletes often feel that the least amount of rest during a set, the better. Not this time. You need the recovery so you can go fast.

Excellent Listen
Before launching into the workouts, you need to know the two biggest mistakes that can be made in these workouts. The first error is not going fast when it's time to go fast. You must have a noticeable difference between your steady pace and your fast pace.

Swimmers looking for an edge in the water should look to the road or even the trail. It doesn't matter, as long as they're running.

A Great Book
The first few meters are easy and pleasant. You glide gracefully through the water, following the black lane line and in tune with your inner dolphin.

Great Resource
Because on the first day I gulped a lot of water, sank a couple of times, and some water entered my nose as well. However, Nits persuaded me to continue, and soon I began to enjoy swimming.
