How do I remove the bottom track of an above ground swimming pool?

It's called osmosis (movement of fluid through a membrane from a less concentrated solution to a more concentrated solution in an attempt to balance both solutions). Your skin is a semi-permeable membrane and allows water to enter it. Since you are immersed in water your skin absorbs it into your body. What you discovered was this extra water weight in your body.

As an aside, this is why swimming makes one want to urinate more often and why you are rarely thirsty for a while after a swim.
