"people don’t swim because its fun. ask any swimmer, most of them hate it, but couldn’t imagin life without it. its a part of them, the love/hate relationships, its what they live for. they live for the practices,partys,cheers, meets, the countless pairs of goggles,water,gatorade and the coaches you hate but appreciate. they live for the way it feels when you beat the other team by a few points, and you know those two extra sprints you swam in practice were worth it. they live for they way you become a family with your team, they live for the countless songs you sing in your head while your swimming all those laps. they live for the compition, they live for the friends, the practices, the memories, the pain, its who they are. its who we are... Swimmers <3"

Swimmers do more flips in an hour than cheerleaders do in a lifetime : )

Being on that block is the most amazing feeling, bent down, finger tips on the edge of the cement, eyes closed, breathing deeply, waiting for the deep voice telling you to take your mark. Once you hear his voice, you automatically go into that tight stance. Waiting. Waiting. It seems like hours even though its only seconds. Then once you hear the beginning of that electric beep, your arms fly forward you open your eyes and jump as high and as far as your legs can take you. You bend your body down and dive into the water. The feeling, for that split second, in midair is amazing and indescribable.

"you never know what it means to be a swimmer until you are standing behind the blocks with all the other swimmers, thinking of the time you want, and thne you hear your event called, you hear the whistle, then you step up position your feet, and bend down, waiting for the take your mark, ans soon as you hear that, your heart starts racing,you grab the blcok, and then you here the blow, and you jump as high and far out as your body will let you, and then you hit the water and everything you have been training for is paying off now... you dont think about each individual stroke, it just comes, you dont think about breathing, you only breathe when absolutely nesacarry, you flip trying to make it perfect, and you keep pushing your self as hard as you will go through the whole race and then when you hit that list turn, you involuntary sprinting like no other, then you see the flags, and you put your head down and dont breathe until the race is over, you hit the wall, and finish the race, thats when you know what swimming really is.

"SWIMMING: alot say it isnt hard...but you never know the true difficulty until you devote your life to one sport..swimming asks that from you. you have to push yourself every single practice no matter how hard it hurts each time...and every meet, no matter what the events, you push yourself each and every time. thats what swimming is.
