The meaning of swimming

(I somehow lost my post in the middle of reviewing it--sorry if this ends up posted twice! Now let's see if I can remember what I wrote.) I was talking with a friend about swimming and she said she started "swimming for life" x number of years ago. I got the sense that she meant that it was more than a good workout--it kept her "alive." I have to admit that it has that kind of effect for me, too. At the risk of sounding too new-agey, it's nourishing in more than a physical sense. What does swimming mean to you? How does that compare to other sports or activities you do? How does that meaning influence your goals and performance?

Sometimes I get to the end of a workout and I am not really sure if I did what I had planned to do! QUOTE] The way the Steelers are playing this year you shouldn't have to worry about that!!!! Go Steelers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:D
