The “Swimming Fast” Observation

Heard the one about someone “swimming fast” and silently wondered what was meant by that comment? mywaterworld looks at that type of observation in a 2 part story.

In Part 1, consideration is given to exploring what may be meant by that observation. We also take a look at swimming speeds to understand what is actually “fast” and consider the need for a frame of reference for that type of observation.

In Part 2 we look at the FINA points system, how it works and allows us to understand how fast someone is actually swimming within a frame of reference.
