"I SWIM SO THAT I AM"


 "My daily swim is not a hobby.  

I don’t do it for fun, or recreation.  

I don’t even think of it as exercise, even though it’s definitely that.  

For me, open water swimming is a ritual, a practice, a discipline, a meditation. 

It’s an absolute. 

I swim because I must. 

It’s a basic need, an essential part of my makeup.  

I swim so that I am.

Et si à la question c'est quoi nager demain ?, on répondait un mode de vie ? .
