Love and swimming

At the Washington Post, Ron Charles has a very nice piece about my friend Aoibheann Sweeney's new novel Among Other Things, I've Taken Up Smoking (a very good title for a novel, in my opinion). I've got it here and am looking forward to reading it shortly, not least because a quick survey of the opening chapters reveals to me some significant swimming-related elements...

More thoughts on running will follow sometime in the next couple days, I had a very good run yesterday morning (I realize that one happy discovery of the summer is that I have learned to love running fast down hills), but the most annoying recent development round here is that the letter T just popped off my laptop keyboard! Equipment failure at the crucial juncture--not good...
