So I've always said that swimmers are a little off...well mostly male swimmers. Here is another portion of the Mrs. Coach Chronicles. She is comparing running to swimming.
"With swimming, at least 25 percent of any team is visiting from another planet. And that’s a conservative estimate. I honestly don’t know why this is. I’ve hypothesized it has something to do with gravity. Running is completely beholden to the effects of gravity and it just beats the snot, poop and fun out of you. With swimming, though, you create this illusion that you’re defying gravity because you’re horizontal all the time, so maybe that loosens up the screws. Or maybe it’s just the chemicals in the water killing brain cells. I really don’t know.
As for which type I prefer to be around, well, isn’t that obvious? I mean, you don’t see me married to a runner, do you?"
Anyways I don't know who reads this but I thought there might be a chance that a couple of my old swimming friends do... I can definitely think of some people who were visiting from another planet. Can you?
