Can one exercise swim in a local YMCA type pool with a mask
and a snorkel?
Ive never been a very good swimmer when it come to breathing
techniques.... but I love the feeling I get when I swim on
reg basis.
Can one buy and use a specialized snorkel and mask just for
exercise swimming as described above?
You could probably use a swimmer's snorkel (e.g.
trisports.comfinswimsnor.htmlOpen ↗ or ins-ins-Open ↗
ideoutsports.com/product.aspx?storeid=&eventid=0&sku=101513-
); that way, you can learn swim strokes without worrying
about breathing technique.
However, you're going to need to learn to breathe while
swimming at some point. 😉

Uunless you stick with really short races.
