Do you like to swim?

Question

I don't like to actually swim because it's tiring. But I like to hang out in the pool or ocean and just float around.

Our neighbor had a pool when I was growing up, so I learned to swim at an early age. I was soon competent enough to swim across small lakes when we went camping.

I started body surfing and belly boarding when I was in my early teens. And by age 15, I began surfing. Back then, there were no ankle straps for surf boards, so if your board washed ashore, you had to swim for it.

At around 19 or 20 years old, I took a canoeing class at the community college. In order to take the class, you have to prove that you could swim to one end of the Olympic size pool and back fully clothed.
I thought it would be super easy, but I didn't realize how hard it would be with clothes on. By the time I made it across and turned around to come back, I was pretty exhausted. So I rolled over onto my back and paddled leisurely the rest of the way.
All they cared about is that you wouldn't drown if you got tired.

I don't know how to swim. But, I were to swim, then I would get a temporary one or build one in my house's backyard and swim in it.

I can say for sure is that, I don't like swimming in the public pools. Lake or something like that is cool, but not an artificial swimming pool.

I remember my dad build me a swimming pool next to my house when i was 10yo, since then i love to swim even invite my friend to swim together. And then im not swim often when i was high school cuz i had lots stuff to do after school such a extracurricular activity..
Then when i went to high school, i went to different island n can't swim a lot like i used to when i was kid.. and my friend invited me to swim again, since then i started to swim for at least once a week

Yeah I do. I usually go swimming once a week. I don't love exercising that much but I do like to swim. I think it's because you don't get/look sweaty because you are in water, makes me feel less gross.

zagor · Answer

Yes, but I can't seem to swim very far without getting tired even when (unlike now) I am in shape and can run for miles. I go hiking with my brother-in-law and kick his butt in terms of walking endurance, but get in a pool and I crap out after 3 laps while he can swim for an hour, even though he's 15 years older than me.

WhereIsMyMind · Answer

I like going to the pool, I'm a pretty decent swimmer but I just hate the cold. When you first get in, and then when you get out to go to the changing rooms. 🥶I'm not a fan of swimming in the ocean though, the salty water stings my skin.

EmbraceThePain · Answer

You and your friend look great.

As for me, yes, I do like swimming anywhere that is relatively safe. I do want to do more open water swims in the future. Also, I think it is an extremely invaluable fitness tool.

Solrosen · Answer

I used to swim as a sport for a long time so I don't mind doing the same thing in a lake or at the sea. Just resting is also fine but I prefer the water.

swimming or being in the water/pool reminds me a bit of having fun in the sandbox/playground when I was little kid.

I can't swim at all, because in water I just sink straight to the bottom. Maybe my next career could be as a ship's anchor.

I do like to swim, but my local pool that was 200 Meters from my flat has been closed and another built on the other side of town and it is a 25 Meter pool where the old one was a 50 Meter pool.

It's been so long since I went I've probably forgotten how and unlike cycling where the result of forgetting was just a scuffed knee, I'd probably drown
