(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?
Kyra and Heather: Those were amazing! :groovy:
Glad you joined in the banter, baby sister. Welcome back Sonic! Hang in there!
Retaliation To Battle Cry:
The postal event is a sordid affair,
Swimming an hour on a USMS dare.
Only the dim go flip, flip, flip.
The 50 fly is way more hip.
Mindless freestyle is shoulder wear.
In fact, engine building is quite over-rated.
Terry avers that the theory's out-dated.
So, instead, I aim to vessel shape.
Mindfully drilling, not a postal ape.
Avoiding the Endless laps, well hated.
