		<title>Triathlon Workout</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had noticed a difference in my endurance before, and I wasn&#8217;t sure whether it was due to weight loss or aerobic fitness. I had attributed it to weight loss, but now I think it&#8217;s because of aerobic fitness. What changed my mind was Friday, August 13th, when I did some triathlon training, or a [...]]]></description>

		<title>In Search of Readers</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last week, I checked the analytics on this site, and saw that one person had come to read it. Then I saw a friend I haven&#8217;t seen in weeks. &#8220;You went to Lake Michigan?&#8221; She asked. So that&#8217;s the one, I thought. Lurker.]]></description>

		<title>Swim Lessons at Last!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I knew all summer that the only way I could get my kids into swim lessons at our old swim club would be to go down to the pool and talk to the head coach. Even though they have a website, a facebook page, and a twitter account, they are really more face to face [...]]]></description>

		<title>Most Horrific Drowning Incident Ever</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been almost a month since a severe drowning tragedy in Louisiana. On August 3rd, 7 teens playing in the water at a Shreveport, LA park fell into a sinkhole. Each non-swimming teen tried to save another, all drowned but 1. Even more horrific: the children who drowned were siblings from 2 different families. And [...]]]></description>

		<title>Born Again Swimmer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s another story from our Lake Michigan trip. Of 5 little girls, 1 is a non-swimmer. The 7 year old had her first swim lesson this summer, but was afraid to get her face wet. Her mother had her do a few bobs in the lake, then she watched my 8 year old doing streamlines [...]]]></description>

The friend has come to pick her up and taken her to her house to play a few times. My daughter usually gets home late, full [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lake Michigan Trip</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This was our first Lake Michigan trip in 4 years. It was a triumphant return in many ways&#8211;the sand was comfortable, and the water was warm, which is a never in Lake Michigan. But the beach that we visited had very big rocks on the lake floor, making it too painful for the little children [...]]]></description>

		<title>3 Reasons Blacks Won&#8217;t Learn to Swim</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Although I suspect I&#8217;m laboring in obscurity here, I have figured out the mystery of the non-swimming black culture. There are three reasons, and they feed each other. 1. Non-swimming adults If you don&#8217;t swim, you don&#8217;t get what the big deal is with swimming. You don&#8217;t make it a priority. If you hear about [...]]]></description>

		<title>Why Don&#8217;t Blacks Swim?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The debate continues at Diversity in Aquatics. To be fair, the original question was not why don&#8217;t blacks swim, but, rather, can blacks swim well enough to save themselves? I have contributed to the forum, without actually addressing that original question. I haven&#8217;t found that question sufficient or interesting, or whatever, but I think I [...]]]></description>
