(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?

Wow...That was very good Seagurl! It sure didn't take you very long to take that creative leap?? I'm really blown away with everyone's poetry so far! This poetry idea was definitely a great idea.....Unfortunately I wasn't able to come up with anything yet other than "There once was a swimmer from Nantuckett".......Then it just goes down hill from there! I will sleep on it and hope for a creative inspiration during the night?? I promise I will live up to my word (especially now that Seagurl has delivered) and at least give it a try sometime tommorrow
