I'm afraid I have a confession to make. This morning, after the main set, I swam an easy 200 warmdown (as I usually do). I was concentrating on perfect form (again as I usually do during warmdown)--long strokes, good rotation, balanced position in the water. Only later did I realize I was guilty of...TI-like swimming. There, it's out. I feel better now.

I always thought it was "longer boats are coming to IN us," not "win us". I'm sure glad I finally know the real words and that I can grasp the full meaning, ... like now I really get the "they'll be taking the key from the door" and the connection to swimming ("they" will take away your pool key). When you understand the lyrics, life is so much better.
I don't think I ever swim TI because my long boat arms extend over the water before they drop. So I remain innocent.
