I've been struggling through painful mornings all summer, trying to get my body to run in the blistering heat. But yesterday, I discovered swimming. My goggles are cheap and the water crowds my eyes after only a few strokes, and my parents' neighborhood pool is probably only half the size of a real pool, but I think it's safe to say I've found my new love.

Maybe this has something to do with it:
