I was not an athletic child, but I have always loved swimming.

This summer, we tried all the nearby options and found a gym with an outdoor pool and indoor pool, and my husband swims in the sun and I swim indoors, and it has seriously been the best dang thing this whole summer.

I didn't know I could swim as long as I do now, 30 or 45 or even 60 minutes at a stretch.

I guess it's good to know, even as we get older, that there are things you can improve upon and do, that you maybe didn't know you were capable of doing.
