Just thought I would start a thread which didn't have deep philosophical overtones so that we all can have fun with the new forum software. Based upon personal experience, I will start a list of “You know you are a swimmer when …” with the following:
You know you are a swimmer when you leave work in the rain and you can smell the chlorine coming off of your hair.
Anyone care to add to the list?
I have never been very poetic bare with me this little try.
Swim Fast
Don't be last,
Make a beline
Please swim streamline,
Get there first
Breathe heavy but don't you burst,
Don't be meek
Swim like Aquageek.

Swim like Aquageek
Who is nice and sleek
With a superb physique
Not at all weak
And not yet reached his peak!
Don't call him antique, a freak, or pipsqueak
Or you future on the board will be rather bleak
:lmao:
Couldn't resist
it's 114 degrees in AZ and friends invite you to a "pool party"...and ask...politely...that you not wear a Speedo.
Excuse me...its a drag suit. Let me say this again...unlike Sam Perry it is not a "drag queen" suit.

Did I hear a shriek
when you called him a freak?
This poem needs a tweak
but it shouldn't take a whole week.
There. It's gone in a streak.

........... and you show up AND you're wearing your briefs and you scoff at your friends, because what you're wearing is NOT a Speedo, it's a TYR.
Paul I looked for you at Wing's restaurant at the Phoenix Airport on June the 6th.

You know you are a swimmer when you hit the gym 6 hours after practice and the post practice shower, start to warmup on the treadmill and smell - chlorine.
You know you are a swimmer with a swimming spouse when he/she finds the above experience evocative of fond memories.
