scotty74bluenose 0 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I know nothing about swimming as a sport, but I've been following it at the Olympics. Seems that in every race I've watched a new world record has been set. I think there have been about 20 new world records to so far. I'm curious to know why so many? Seems disproportionate to other sports at the games. Any ideas? :unionflag: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
