SWIMMING

Oh how I love the Summer Olympics!! One word: SWIMMING!! As most of you know I swam for 15 years; competed for 8, and coached in Starkville after I graduated from high school. I miss it some days, well I miss my “swimmers body” a workout in the pool 20 hours a week will defiantly keep you in shape! I love watching the Olympics period, but the swimming is by far my favorite. I haven’t swam in a few months and Monday night I went and jumped in after work…. I got my motivation and inspiration back after watching a few races. There is a few city leagues here in Tampa that I might get into in the Spring. I need to get myself back into shape first; it won’t take that long if I just jump in the pool for about 2 hours 4 nights a week. Gosh, I have so many wonderful stories about swimming. My dream would be to go watch the Summer Olympics in 2012 only if Phelps is swimming. MICHAEL PHELPS defiantly put swimming back on the map, I often keep up with him to see what his times are; he’s a SICK swimmer! My other favorite swimmers to look at are Aaron Peirsol and Brendan Hansen…see pictures below! Need I say more!
