This morning I was not planning on going to the pool, but when I looked outside it was raining. I went to the pool and spent the best hour that I have had in a long, long time. I spend the time kicking (I hate kicking with a passion) and just feeling the rain on my face. It was such a serene experience with the water droplets hitting my goggles and the feeling that it was just me, the rain, and the water. The mountains were covered in mist and no one else was in the pool, although there was one rather wet lifeguard that kept glaring at me. When I got out I felt refreshed and renewed and ready to face the rest of my day. Does anyone else have a beautiful experience at the pool?

Those are such wonderful stories!
Leonard--That was probably the funniest thing I have read in a long time!
Tom--I love watching people really give it their all.
FindingMyInnerFish--GOOD LUCK in your first meet!!!
The most beautiful swimming moments for me would be, when I got back into the water for the first time after several years out. I didn't realize how much I missed it. Also, my first race in February. I remember that being on those starting blocks for only the thrid time in my life and about to start my first ever race at my first ever competition was the most nerve racking and exciting thing I have ever done. It was soo exhiliarting!! I remember smiling during my whole race.
