Let’s have a little fun today. I drew up this quick little cartoon of two swimmers in a public pool. One found a reason to swim a little faster. I’ll add a few more reasons. Perhaps you can join in the fun as well.

Or, these good reasons:

“I see fins in the water behind us.”

“There’s a special two-for-one deal on burritos at Chipotle.”

“This part of the pool is downhill I hear.”

“I’m in the middle of a divorce, and I just might need to drown someone.”

“I had sex last night and didn’t take a shower this morning.”

“Your mother-in-law is behind us, I think.”

“We’re crossing under the high dive.”

Okay, now it’s your turn. What are some other good reasons for swimming faster at the public pool?”
