A Letter To Swim Coaches Everywhere: Thank You
From the Swimming World website...
By KRISTEN WAGNER
Dear Coach,
I would like to begin this letter by asking you a question. A simple, one-word question: Why? Why did you pursue this career? Why do you wake up at the most ungodly hours every day, just to inevitably scream at your swimmers for breathing off the wall? Why do you devote countless hours of your life to the fate of our swimming careers? Why do you care?
Luckily for you, these are questions that I already know the answers to. You pursue this career because you love the sport of swimming. You wake up at the crack of dawn every day to scream at us because you truly care. You care, because swimming is your passion. You can’t get enough of it. And thank God you do, because who knows where we would be without you.
