When I started
I loved going every single day!
How I started
I asked my mom if i could go to dance lessons like all the other girls in kindergarten, and she said no because we couldn't afford it. So she signed me up for the one activity we COULD afford which was swimming. I didn't mind, i was a fish anyways.
Why I love it
I love feeling fast, it depends on who you are racing- I'm no Michael Phelps of course- but just those moments where you feel like every fiber of you if being propelled infinately forward.
How I stay motivated
I swim when i want to. I still swim meets, but i only work out when i want to, that way it doesnt grow old or tiresome for me.
