For me, swimming is also a very intellectually stimulating activity. I work in the science and engineering field and I do some of my best thinking while lap swimming.
I also read that the Japanese are also very aquaphilic personalities and some of their engineers have come up with their best ideas while in the hot tub or in the pool.
Swimming provides such a great natuaral "high" and it really sharpens your mind. ;)

In the tradition of the last posts....my thoughts today were:
"Hey...I pushed off at the same time as her...nifty
"1..2..3..4..5..6..7..8...9..10..11..12...okay...now rotate!" (I was doing a side kicking set)
"Build me up...buttercup baby don't you let me down...and push me around and then worst of all...you never call baby...when you say you will..."
"There is water in my snorkel...aieeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...I'm breathing oxygen through water! i'm a fish! no wait! i can't breath! must get to wall!"
"What does my coach think I am...a div 1 swimmer?"
"Damn...all the others finished already...I really want to get out and go study for my finals..."
"Hey..wait...is that...are my coaches leaving practice too?? Not fair! Okay I'm getting out now."
