🏊🌊 #95: ?While swimming in open water, you need to be able to sight (raise your head) to see whether you are swimming straight or not. When you do this, your legs drop which causes you to loose speed. Next time you sight forward, increase your kick speed for a slight bit during the time you are raising your head, this will keep your legs from sinking too much. Find more swim advice at
