What makes you (or makes you want) to stop your swim workout, aside from being tired or feeling hurt?
- Sharing Lanes: Sometimes when I go to share a lane with someone, I'll get in, they'll do another lap, and get out. I feel guilty. I have on a couple occasions gotten out when people want to split lanes with me, especially if they're annoying and touch me/swim into me.
- Team Practices: I don't know why, but if I'm not part of the team practice that's in the pool, I don't want to be there. Maybe I just feel lazy next to them.
- Thinking about food: Food (particularly donuts for some reason) makes me feel sick while swimming. I've thrown up in my mouth on several occasions due to thinking about food while swimming. I love food, I love thinking about food, but not while swimming.
- Little kid swim lessons: The last time i swam next to this I got smacked in the face with an oar to an inflatable boat.
- The creepy middle aged guy that hangs out at the end of my lane to stretch when there are 7 open lanes. Wearing briefs, giant goggles, and covered in hair. Doing odd exercises like thrusting the ground or stretching hs hip flexors widely on the diving blocks. :bolt:

- floating band-aids
- a long hair that gets stuck in my mouth(once it got stuck in the strap of my goggles and was flapping in my face....shutter
- perfumed old women
- stinky people that you somehow can smell underwater that make you gag
- a person literally swimming in his underwear(alternative: shorts)
The grossest thing that made me get out of the pool was this weird guy at a pool in London who looked like a lunatic and had open wounds on his body(didn't really want to look) and he was pressing one wound on his arm like it was a big zit in the locker room.
Next thing I know he's next to me in the pool. That was too disgusting and I left.:eek:
Try to top that:D
