These days, right now, these are the good old days. I've always approached it that way. That's why I'm still working. I'm not the guy who is ready to sit by the pool.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
You see a lot of us lingering around. We'll just stand there on the edge of the pool and kinda psych ourselves up into getting in.
I am endlessly busy, bringing up five young kids, and trying to keep up with the three older ones. I still spend most of my life driving car pools.
Just all that hard work, all those hours in the pool, I feel like it's about to pay off. I guess we'll just have to wait and see this summer.
It seems to me I spent my life in car pools, but you know, that's how I kept track of what was going on.
The pool is terrible, but that doesn't have much to do with my record swims. That's all mental attitude.
I usually go to the swimming pool if I want to swim.
I was what they call a pool hustler. That's absolutely true. For long periods of time I got by, barely skimmed by, just playing pool.
I love to play pool.
I do pool exercises, like weightlifting but underwater. I walk, I swim... I'm pretty fit for an old bloke.
I'm really looking forward to just concentrating on the swimming part now instead of what's going on with me outside the pool.
