Mike Gustafson of Swimnetwork has done it again. Reporting on the mundane everyday rituals of swimming, and cracking me up along the way. I am not sure if I love this column because I can relate to almost all of his diatribes (from doing arm circles for 20 minutes so I don't have to get in the water, to the specifics of The Deck Change) ...I wouldn't be surprised to read about the most offensive topic, peeing in the pool, soon!
Here's a great example.
"A swimmer tightrope-walks the line between efficiency and nudity. Between him and one thousand spectators is a 500-time washed ratty towel hanging precariously on the final frontier. Then -- in a blink -- the crime is committed, the clothes are on, and the Earth resumes its anticipated spin.
The Art of the Deck Change."
