I Knew There Was a Reason I Chose Running Over Swimming*

We all know how easy it is to answer nature's call when on a long run in the forests and mountains of State College.  But who knew that 1 out of every 5 ADULTS ADMITS to peeing in the pool.  That's adults with the ability to choose when to answer the call.  And that's just those that admit to it!  That's not even the kids you see actually smiling at you as they do it.

So there is actually serious health concerns because of this practice.  And more than 50% of public pools show culture evidence of someone pooping in the pool.  Nearly 50% admit to not showering before entering the pool (which reduces bacterial count by billions and billions!). Luckily only 1% with diarrhea admit to swimming with it.
