It was so tight that I was sliding down to the front of the swim during the national anthem. classy. you're one of those who disrespect the national anthem. you would have received a reaction had i been there.....
otherwise, nice job on your race.
Exactly. Everyone else is in their spot so you take advantage of them while they are focused on the anthem.
well, i didn't insinuate the OP was using everyone else's "distraction" to gain a position advantage; he seemed clear to me he was running late and was just trying to get to where he was supposed to be (for the swim start). my point was specifically his inattention to the national anthem. i respect that he owned up to it.
sorry, but that's just one of those things that annoys me greatly; folks not stopping, taking off their hats, and being quiet during the anthem, but instead mill around and chatting it up. if one doesn't want to respect the flag and anthem, so be it. but, respect those who do.
