I Played College Athletics

I swim for my college. They call us athletes but it’s not track and field! Pool! I train every day except Friday when I am in school and Sunday when I am not allowed to train.
My training isn’t just about lengths. I do drills, like kick and sculling. And 50 metres off 90 seconds. So it’s speed.

Swimmers are definitely athletes ... look how your body differs from those who aren’t swimmers . You have broader shoulders and a bigger chest cavity and your thighs and hips are much more developed . Swimming is a smart sport where you aren’t going to run into someone , get hit by a ball, or tear up a knee or ankle while running .
I pitched ( softball) in college ... always had to duck line drives hit back at me , hurt a knee base running , got hit by pitches ... yep , you’re the smart one 😁👍🏻

Thank you. I didn’t understand all the softball words! But I get the idea! The only injuries I get is when I have been training in the leisure centre and I go back to college and the pool is 5metres shorter and I forget to stop! @TexChik

It is. It’s hard work. But I love every minute. @TopDolla
