RARE GULF EARTHQUAKE: The magnitude 6.1 today near Cuba is officially the 2nd strongest on record in the Gulf. Strongest quake was a 6.4 in the Southwestern Gulf near Mexico in 1959. Considering the shaking in Florida today, the largest known quake ever in the state was a 4.4 in 1879 southeast of Gainesville!
Tip of the Day: Focus on longer, smoother strokes instead of faster splashing. Fewer strokes per length = more power and less fatigue. Try counting your strokes on your next 50 or 100 and see if you can drop 1-2 while keeping the same pace.
Efficiency beats effort every time! πͺ
