Comment on "I never saved anything for the swim back"

As someone that's done a modest amount of swimming, that's a horrible metaphor. If you don't pace yourself, there's no way you'll win a race.

You have to put it in context then. It wasn't about speed, it was about who was willing to go further out on the water, knowing they had to have enough energy to swim back to shore.
