Killing my spork budget......
...anything worth doing is worth overdoing.
Love the Spork!
Sorry about the budget Barra. It is one of the highest honors in swimming for fellow swimmers to present an award like this. It really means a lot to me. I hope everyone has a good season this year. May the seas be calm and your arms swim strong.
