    In order to run 1 mile in 63 laps, the pool would have to be 14 yards long.

    Sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia is the medical term for brain freeze.

    A quick way you can get this is by eating an ice cream…

    or by trying to say the medical term for brain freeze.

    The medical term is used less frequently in social gatherings than one might suspect..

    When a seal dives, a seagull can fly over a crab eating a clam. The seagull could eat the clam but it may or may not eat the crab. On the other hand, when a seal dives, it can’t drive a stickshift car. BION! :D I’m guessing it has to do with a drop in brain activity due to the low temperature. I dived and my whole temperature dropped. If you’re on vacation, let the seals dive. Get a Margarita and a suntan! :D

    Is that dog named “Beacon” he brings home the bacon?

    RBION did it again. It was 63 lengths of a 25 meter (82 foot) pool and NOT laps.So with a mile being 5280 feet he actually ran 5166 feet or 97.8% of a mile.

    If I ran the mile in 35 minutes and 24 seconds I’d flunk gym

    I used to walk twice that in less time just to get to school everyday.

    No wonder the 2024 US Olympic Gymnastics team did so well. Good job, Beacon.

    He could’ve run it faster if he had waited till they emptied the pool. :)

    I suspect that “Beacon” is a show-off.

    ’m sure I’m not the only one to ask if it had a deep end. That’d be really impressive. (Not that it’s not impressive to run a mile in a shallower pool, like up to your waist even, it is).
