Growing up surfing, kayaking and body surfing, I am a strong but slow swimmer.
The first time I ever got in a pool with guys that had been on swim teams like Garp's kids, it was a revelation: They were so fast and quiet in the the water, completely at home.
I swim once a week for variety but don't really enjoy it.
