ok.. this is kinda sad... all these pathetic posts...heres my swimming sorry i started swimming when i was 2.5 years old. I rescued my first person from the pool (my little brother was drowning, he was 2) when i was 4. I start the swim team at 6 years of age. I was never a very fast swimmer, just a powerful one untill recently. I'm only 13 yet i swim a 28 second 50 freestyle. Swimming is one of the only sports that don't require too much natural athletic ability. I also play water polo. and a speedo isn't as bad as you think.
