Not sure if this has been asked here... For me, the first reason is that I don't want to be drowned in case of accident :cool: . The last reason is that I'm proud to tell people I swim :D . In between there are a lot of other reasons.
What about you? :confused:

i swim because i can understand this state of matter. i have been in water consistently before birth, from birth, and after birth. i used to do it to survive, then to play games, then to be strong, now to be fast. i am liquid. when i see a body of water i think how long it would take me to get across it - where i would end up on the other side, study the waves, the currents, the wind, and the goemetry - because i swim. because i swim i am fluid. i can glide through water, understand how dynamic it really is, feel it in my fingers and churn it with the flex of my feet, listen to it and let it clear my thoughts. that is why i swim.
