More Swimming

And here's another video of me turning out a respectable swim in the 50m Freestyle against some formidables. Success breeds success. Once you get the taste in your mouth, you strive for more like an addiction. It's no coincidence that those at the top of any sport are never satisfied, never willing to sit back. Why does Phelps still want to swim every day, knowing that he won't better 8 Golds at an Olympics? Why does Federer still want to play after winning every Grand Slam there is? Why should Tiger Woods even bother showing up any more? Mediocrity dies young. I'm in lane 6, just a bit further from the camera than is comfortable.
