Ever wonder what I think about while for swimming hours on end?

It's a trick question. The answer is a little bit of everything! These are a few of my favorite things: singing, counting, site sea-ing.

Last week, I found new meaning to the 1780 English Christmas Carole: "The 12 Days of Christmas." Sea my rendition below:

On the third week of training, here’s what I happened to sea..

Twelve seals a-sleeping

Eleven kayakers paddling

Ten sea lions bathing

Nine swimmers training

Eight Garibaldi a-swimming

Seven seagulls diving

Six buoys floating

Five divers lurking

Four kelp beds growing Three dolphins splashing

Two hang gliders hovering

and

Me swimming in the sea
