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.

I resisted the urge to respond to this one until I read Jean's reference to Saint-Saens' Symphony #3 (The Organ). I often find myself in the pool at Saturday morning's workout/practice thinking over what I will be doing at my Church the next day. One problem ... I have to go home and practice AGAIN, but at the organ! Water and music mixes well for me, too. Maybe we should get togther and do a list called Swimmers' Favorites. Oh yes! We forgot an obvious one: Handel's Water Music Suite.
