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:

What, there's an option?
When I was a kid I wished that I could swim at school so that the other kids would see that I wasn't such an athletic looser. I had dreams of being chased by "bad guys." The harder I tried to run, the closer they got. My legs just wouldn't coordinate themselves. At the last moment, I'd jump into the air and swim away with ease.
The other day someone told me that it was a pleasure to watch me swim. Okay, he was probably hitting on me, but he said that I looked as if I had been born in the water. When I swim, it is a pleasure for me. I feel at home and everything seems right.
Years ago a friend asked me if I had to be an animal, what animal would that be, and without hesitation I said I'd be a Blue Whale.
If I could find a sponsor and quit my job, I would swim all day long!!
