Yes, the good-old-days of swimming--the days of waking up in the morning at 5:00 am to go to practice, and then going to practice again after school ; the days of constantly smelling like chlorine and never being able to get rid of it; the days of talking in the sauna after practice for hours and hours and hours. Wonderful. I loved it.
