Nose clips work but it feels like working around a weakness rather than beating it. Plus I keep losing them!

You know, the HRMs weren't in evidence in the water (surely more of a transmission than a corrosion problem?). I'd spot the VTL (visible transponder line) easily. Which means - and this really is obsessive - some of them put their HRMS on after the swim to track their barbecue heart rate.

The mind boggles. Clearly if I were to pose the question, "Do you wear that while having sex?" the response would be a confused, "well, yeah, doesn't everyone?"
