Floswimming

Big thanks again to the SCAQ blog for this find. Floswimming includes insightful blogs, news feeds from various swimming publications, photo galleries, and best of all, really interesting videos of interviews with college and elite swimmers and coaches, as well a bunch of workout videos that give you an inside look as to how the cream of the crop train. There is also a section for user videos, social networking and interactive swim logs.

Recent videos include dryland at Texas A&M, interviews with Bob Bowman, and workouts at Texas A&M, USC, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. The Wisconsin one is really fun to watch and I got tired just watching the Texas dryland workout...yikes!

Dara Torres & Ryan Lochte in NYTimes

Seems like the NYTimes is on a swimming streak. Two articles on swimmers over the past few weeks. Check 'em out [Torres link, Lochte link]. Thanks to the SCAQ blog for original post on the Dara Torres article.
