Does anyone else ever mentally hum a tune during swim practices and/or races? My personal favorite, when I am trying to summon energy from my exhausted body, is the 1812 Overture--I try to time it so the cannons start firing towards the latter part of the race.
I'd be interested to hear what goes through other peoples' minds as they swim, musical or otherwise.

My little ditty goes something like this...
First stanza:
"reach, reach, breathe..reach, reach, breathe..."
second stanza:
"get ready to flip; tuck, push, don't breathe"
third stanza:
"reach, breathe..reach, breathe..reach, breathe.."
chorus:
"kick, kick, rotate...kick, kick, rotate"
A little different version for *** and back.
Cheers!
