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?

    Retaliation/Battle Cry In and out They quickly go If endurance they have Nobody will know They hurry in and out Why not stick around We all know distance people Are the coolest in town Speed to an end Must have a rest Why not stick around For another 200 *** Gotta hurry and finish Can't make it that far Try to make it past a 50 Without a trip to the bar Try some stamina for a change Gotta have some staying power Why not see how far You can swim in an hour
