(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?

Heather, you're telling me you don't recall all those insane conversations we used to have then?.....you know (What if we all had superpowers ...what would they be and how would you use them?...hmmm....you had no idea what I was talking about in that posting then?).....Not that we ever went too overboard...but you used to post some pretty "out there" kind of thread topics almost daily...and I must say I had a total blast back then hangin out with you guys....As kyra says "You know all the fun we used to have together"....How do you think it makes me feel when you say stuff like...."My memory is failing...lets see how's the 200 fly training?"....I'm sorry if I'm a little freaked out by that....And you don't recall how I know what you look like? Thats just a little off the cuff for me right now I guess??...Hey but I'm cool with our new relationship now as long as you are.....I can adapt to most anything I suppose?
