Excellent timing for this thread! Just bought a membership for the pool at Canyon Meadows. I was no stranger to pools when I was younger. Started swimming at a young age and was a lifeguard/swim instructor through high school and college. Stopped for some time during my 20's and most of my 30's.

Now that I'm back in it, I too was blown away by how quickly I'd get winded swimming few laps. Those vids in that blog you posted will go a long ways to getting back in form.

Lots of people really only focus on the front crawl only though. Never a bad idea to get some others under your belt. I always found the Elementary back stroke to be by far my fastest.
