I sometimes wonder what it would take for me to want to quit swimming. What would have to happen for me to completely renounce the sport, to hang my cap and goggles up for good? Thankfully, it’s pretty hard to come up with any reasons short of a devastating injury. Yet fairly often I see swimmers who have completely fallen out of love with the sport give it up for good, sometimes at very unexpected points in their careers.
