Watching swimming right now on NBC, one of my all-time favorite Olympic sports to watch. It always intrigues me to see the breathing patterns of Olympic athletes. Just watching the 200m free, most of the swimmers seem to breathe on every other stroke. Makes sense, for what I guess is still a "sprint" distance. It seems that the longer-distance swimmers breathe instead every 3-5 strokes.
