Sorry I can't contribute to your solicitation for a celebration story right now. I do want to respond to your comment about swimming being related to quitting smoking. I think that sometimes it is surprising the degree to which smoking affects other areas of our lives. I have no doubt that if I made up a list of the areas of which I am aware that smoking plays a role that the list would readily lengthen with the object input of others and my own observations over time.
Happy for your reward- not only a reward for swimming, but a reward for your quit accomplishment. You're doing swimmingly.

Alright River! So glad you got an award. If anyone deserves it, you do!!!!! I am also writing to wish you the best time on your trip, and I have no doubt in mind that you will return still not smoking. You are a true inspiration. Cheers, and all the best to you, Jan
Congratulations Phillip!!! This is amazing!!! Way to go! I felt the same way when I checked my swimming times against those of when I was a smoker... and it was amazing the difference! And we NEVER would have been able to do this as smokers! NEVER! Way to go Phillip!
Crave the Quit!

I would have never won the award I was given last night. "Most improved swimmer". That's right I won an award for swimming! This from out of a whole club of people. I was embarassed and pleased and pretty shocked. Cause I don't race, I just swim and the swimming has helped me learn to breath again.
I wasn't going to post this cause on the surface it is about swimming and really not about smoking. HOWEVER, it really is about smoking cause if I had kept smoking I would certainly not have kept swimming. There are many things that go on in each of our lives and each of them is, for me, a learning. My learning to breath again is one of the huge benefits of being quit. Learning to breath and not poisoning myself two or even three times an hour has been a huge life preserver and a benefit.
SOOOOOOO any ways woohoo! I mean WWOOOOHHOOOO!! I am celebrating my swimming career as fast furious (NOT) as it is. What are you celebrating? What is benefitting your life from you quitting?
Curious minds want to know!
