Are you swimming for pleasure when you are traning?
I swim for relaxation.
I swim for fitness.
I swim to keep my blood pressure down.
I swim to lower my blood sugar.
Do I need to split my gut like so many of you are doing???

I swim because......
.....I get a kick out of questions from people at my pool,
like " are you here for swim team practice", "what high school do you swim for"
or " are you training for something".
Anything that will instantly shave 20+ years off my age in other peoples eyes is worth doing:cheerleader:
I have no illusions about how well I swim, but I have stuck with it now for close to 2 years
and I still find that every time I get in the pool, I'm able to push myself just a bit further.
Some days it takes serious effort to haul my butt to the pool and I dread the day when I hit the wall:frustrated: (physically and mentally).
