before swimming her evenf at a meet.

A hairy situation

In the stands sat several girl
swimmers with astonished looks on
their faces. Why? Because they were
told that in the future three to four
months they would not be able to
shave their legs.
The members of the girls swim
team, as a tradition, do not shave
their legs and they wear several swim
suits during practice. Both of these
provide drag for the swimmers (extra
weight).
"A lot of people don't understand
"drag". It's like weighing yourself
down and it really does help. Some
say it's psychological, but I don't care.
It works!"
