Was he just that bad of a swimmer? I didn't understand how he was having so much trouble, especially for a guy that looked to be in pretty good shape.

He looks really lean. I am tubby and I float now but when I was in high school I was on all the sports teams and in excellent shape but super lean. When it came to swimming I got no help from buoyancy at all and it took a huge amount of energy just to tread water. He looked like he was tapped out from racing and treading water wasn't cutting it for recovery. I think the biggest issue aside from bad technique was that he was near his VO2 max and could only hold his breath for a couple of seconds in that state.

No way are people going to put up with him for the 55 days. I hope they don't go back to 39.
