You Don't Swim

I was reminded at the dinner table tonight that the farthest i have ever swam was to the other side of the pool bar.  So, why would i pick a triathalon?  how about another marathon keep it safe?  how about a biathalon...or even a winter biathalon where at least i could stop and shoot something while i catch my breath.  Nope.  New challenges are what define us.  i know a guy who has been climbing mountains over the past 4 years.  he used to be almost triple his current weight and drank wine like water...he continues to keep himself in check by eating right and creating new challenges for himself.  he is set on climbing mt. everest this year.  yes...mt everest. 

If he can do mt. everest...i can put on the speedo and get in the pool. 

on second thought...i'll hold off on the speedo

wouldn't want to traumatize anyone...
