You need to get to the pool (just not mine)

My pool is at 66% due to the idiots who built it using the wrong materials in the sprinkler system. I retired from fighting and moved to swimming as my primary exercise, and it's awesome. If you have good technique, it's much easier on just about every body part, and let's face it, most people would rather look like swimmer than a jogger.

"Exercise" doesn't account for 75% of TV adverstising.
