I had an entire list of fun swimming-related toys, books, paraphernalia to text at you for my 2009 Christmas wish list, such as…
- a lap counter Hello! I’ve been known to lose count after 3 laps.
- a copy of “Swimming Anatomy” by Ian McLeod. USMS Marin Pirates swim coach, Cokie Lepinski, recommended this incredible book to me – but I couldn’t wait. My copy is sitting right here on my desk.
- a gift certificate to my favorite online swim store, SwimOutlet.com
But, I’ve changed my mind. All I really want for Christmas is world peace and for my torn biceps tendon to heal quickly, sans surgery, so I can get in the pool, swim long and hard, and not suffer in burning agony until I do the same thing a day later.
