good advice for me; especially the staying to the inside part...question is can a less expereinced swimmer gain value by going to the outside to avoid the crowd..of course it will cost some time?
you are correct. most experts recommend beginners start on the outside in their first race. open water has a way of freaking people out (it did me!) and being hammered by a bunch of arms and legs doesn't help. it may cost you a minute or two. not much.
