(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?

people look at me like I'm crazy when I walk in dripping and my clothes are sticking to me!
Hmmm?? Well that certainly makes for an interseting visual I suppose.
Well, if you ever do come to Idaho we will race! I can take you!!
More Hmmm?....I am feeling a certain obligation now to set this little "situation" straight here.....It's time to show little seagurly who's the boss around here!!...(Just kidding of course....plus you wouldn't humiliate a poor feeble old man like me now would you?....it's bad enough to go through life with the head of a giant green fish!)
