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?

    Thanks everybody for the encouraging words (except Jim;) lol...Jim you know you're my favorite math geek!). Blue, the alligator is reportedly 5 feet. ~~>As for the capitol meet, not sure. I know the Susan wants to do it after zones, but I'm not sure when. She is having a real problem with the sanctioning office so that is coming into question. She has talked about having it anyway maybe like a week or 2 after zones, but if she did then it wouldn't be sanctioned so times wouldn't count for anything. However, it does give you an LCM meet to go to. I'm sure she'll let you know via e-mail if you already registered for it earlier, and if not I'll try and keep my ears open at pracitce. I feel like a spy now.:cool:
