		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been training for my long distance open-water event for several months now (it&#8217;s this weekend!) and one of the great things about this type of swimming is that it&#8217;s generally a solitary sport. I sometimes go out with another fellow die-hard, but there isn&#8217;t much opportunity for conversation. There is, however, significant opportunity to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am wildly frustrated.
I have now ordered four &#8220;thermoregulating speedsuits&#8221; only to be told by four different reps/distributors/&#8221;customer service&#8221; experts that each of the four suits aren&#8217;t available.
Here is where my frustration begins to build: I have an MBA with a specialization in marketing, so I have some level of understanding of premium products. A [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A few weeks ago I ordered a new full-body racing suit from Speedo. This suit is one step below the suits worn in the Olympics (pricey!) and my motivation was warmth, not speed for Tahoe- though I&#8217;m not one to turn down extra advantages.
The suit, and its staggering price tag, arrived in the mail and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have hit the swimming jackpot. A friend that I have swam with for years is also training for a long-distance open water swimming event. We&#8217;ve now done two river swims together, and I&#8217;m realizing that there is definitely strength in numbers. 
His event is not until early August, a full two weeks after my [...]]]></description>

The topic of the post was my son&#8217;s desire to expand his product line by saving enough money to purchase a soda machine that he would set up on our well-traveled sidewalk. I should probably mention [...]]]></description>

Granted, I am an independent, professional adult, fully capable of making my own decisions. And, I have chosen to join a team that will be racing across a very large, very cold lake next [...]]]></description>

My former coach (both club and college) is an internally-recognized open water swimmer. In fact, he has recently returned from Florida where he [...]]]></description>

All of the women had children. One even crossed party lines to [...]]]></description>

However, when the form arrived in my mailbox, there were extra names listed and I was to provide my information as an alternate. I was confused, so I called the team captain and we had our first official [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s the deal: I&#8217;ve been recruited to join a team of women who will race across Lake Tahoe in two months. It&#8217;s an 11.5-mile journey and each swimmer takes a 30-minute shift until we hit land. I had been looking for a new challenge and have decided that this fits the bill.
Now here&#8217;s the catch: [...]]]></description>
