...is a healthy activity. One of my favorite sports is swimming. And I love it! I swim twice a week. And my favorite strokes are backstroke and breaststroke. Do you also love swimming? And what is/are your favorite stroke?

Hi Teen, don't say you can't, yes you can! If other's can do why can't you, right? It's not yet late to have a swimming lesson..why not try? I'm sure in the beginning it would be very scary it's a kind of "use to it" situation..lol.. when you'll get use to the situation you will not even notice that you're already doing your first stroke..hehehe...

I love swimming although I am not really a good swimmert. I swim for the fun of it and for the exercise. In fact, I recntly had my pool repainted in tiume for summer. If i could, I would swim everyday but I don't have the luxury of time. I always have to rush to office early so as to beat the traffic and in the evening I am sometimes so tired that I don't have the energy to swim. But i try to swim during weekends.

I just love to swim. I wish I could heat my swimming pool, I would be in it every day. It is about 50 degrees right now (my pool), so maybe by June I can swim.

I like to go swimming I am not one who can swim long distances using the differnet stoke techniques though. I think the butterfly is the hardest. I like the backstroke but find it much easier just to float on your back but then you don't get the benefit of exercise by doing that. I love walking in water back and forth which is really suppose to be good for you too.

Yes, I do love swimming and I wish I have a lot of time to go. But living in a big city while still in school can be very hectic and doesn't leave me time to go swimming...

Mmmm..Swimming! I just love it! I have been swimming since I was a child. I live in a place where there are a lot of beautiful beaches. The nearest is about 30 minutes to one hour away from the city. We can just go during weekends if we want to. But now that I'm working, I don't have the chance to swim anymore because I'm already out of the country now and the place I live in doesn't have beaches. That's what I miss the most! I miss swimming terribly! horribly! anyways, I just do free style and backstroke. I hope I can go swimming soon..
