It is known that chlorine is toxic. However, there seems to be not much research done on the correlation between swimming and cancer.
Anyone has any thoughts about it?

This should cheer you up *sigh*
swimming.about.com/.../cl_pool_problem_2.htm
And this bibliography should satisfy the medical academics among us:

In all seriousness, life is full of risks. Tragically, a cyclist was mowed down outside my apartment complex this AM; I'm fairly sure that I'm developing arthritis in my hips from running, and there's a chance that I could get killed driving to practice. You get the idea.
I'm thinking of going back to swimming, but this whole cancer thing has freaked me out. :(
Any doctors in the house?
