Last summer, while on vacation with my hubby, I swam a few laps in a pool. I absolutely loved it. I adore being in the water, and Iâd forgotten how all over nice a swim can feel â tiring in a good way and meditative. Plus, thereâs the bonus that itâs not hard on my still-a-little-bit-recovering right knee. After that trip, I told myself Iâd go home and pick up lap swimming.
