My favorite sport has always been swimming. I started swimming competitively on a neighborhood summer league when I was eleven years old, and it opened my eyes to the joys of swimming. I stuck with that summer league until this past year, while also picking up swimming for my school’s team. I had never had hand-eye coordination so swimming and running always seemed like the best options for me. The thing I enjoy most about swimming is how its an individual sport. In the end you are racing only against yourself and your own time. While it is an individual sport, at the same time your times help the whole team. I also enjoy how there’s not many injuries it can cause and its really easy on your body. Swimming is the best all-around sport, for your body and for pure fun.
