The Secret Powers Of Recovery

From the Swimming World website...
BY JONATHAN DRAY
Swimmers are a unique breed. We swim back and forth along a black line every day, sometimes two or three times a day, and much of the time underwater. We stress our bodies in every way imaginable as we develop our aquatic lungs and speed. Sometimes we sprint, sometimes we don’t. Sometimes we wear gear, sometimes we don’t. We never really know what we’re getting ourselves into when we show up to practice, but we know we love it and that’s why we keep coming back.
