I avoid swimming pools - too noisy!
(And I'm not much of a swimmer - it's basically slow drowning!!)

I thought there may be some turbulence effect in shallow water causing
drag. FINA specifies a minimum depth for official pools of just 1 metre
which would imply no such effect. However the Olympics specify a
minimum depth of 2 metres (why?). Perhaps a physicist could help?
