I know most of us have listened to Michael, Sarah or whoever telling us we should breath in through our nose and out through our mouth. And I know most of us have thought ā€œwhat are you talking about, that is impossibleā€. Well I was watching the triathlon yesterday and saw all the athletes breathing in and out through their mouths (not when they were swimming though. Not like the ladies I see who donā€™t want to get their hair and specs wetšŸ˜‚). I donā€™t think those triathletes were trying much harder than us in a relative kind of way, so why canā€™t they do this fancy breathing. Iā€™d say because itā€™s blooming impossible!!!!!
