When I swim, if I just get out of the pool and dry off, it only takes me a minute to fully dry off.
If I take a poolside outdoor shower to get the chlorine off and then dry off, it takes considerably longer to dry off.
This confuses me - getting fully emersed in water should get make me more soaked… but the shower seems to get me more soaked…
I often think about this when taking a shower after swimming… the paradox of water
Maybe.
Also maybe it’s a chemical thing, like the pool water having chlorine (and probably a few other chemicals) in it makes it bond to you less readily.
