I guess I've never swam for such lengths to build up a thirst. I am also under the impression that sweat is the body's way of regulating temperature. Along those lines I figured that it wouldn't be necessary and the body wouldn't sweat. That’s an excellent point. I guess I’ve never swam for such lengths to build up a thirst.

However, I do have to disagree with your comment, "There’s no sweating. Instead of your body getting so hot that it feels like it’s on fire, it remains a nice normal temperature." Your body temperature is being regulated by the water around it, which is why you remain cool. You do sweat...quite a bit. I think this is an important point to note because your readers may neglect staying hydrated during an aquatic workout.

I try to get to the pool at least once a week during lunch. Swimming is a great cross training activity. I try to get to the pool at least once a week during lunch.
