I was going through the heat sheet from Nationals and noticed an ad for a new book by Hodding Carter called "Off the Deep End." Check out the reviews on the Barnes & Noble site: search.barnesandnoble.com/.../isbnInquiry.asp
It comes out in June. Sounds pretty entertaining to me!
P.S. I hope this isn't construed as an ad for the book. I don't know Carter and have no commercial interest in this book.

Bottom line is it's a book about a guy in his 40s who got back into competitive swimming and wanted to see how well he could do. That seems like a topic that would resonate with a lot of people in this forum to me.
There is a book with the similar storyline, different sport. They Don't Play Hockey in Heaven, by Ken Baker.

This is about a goalie who had talent as a teen, and then came back as an adult to try to make it to the NHL. Very inspiring for any reader, even those who don't play hockey.
