During an open water swim, it's easy to lose your direction. With all the splash, it can be quite hard to see the next buoy, so I look behind it for something bigger, like a tree or a building, and aim for that instead.

I've been in the shallow end of a pool, just kind of walking around, but this was my first time really swimming - and I was horrified! I actually lost it whenever I saw the edge of the pool. But I took baby steps and rewarded myself every step of the way.
It's a perfectly human instinct to want to be near water.
People wish to learn to swim and at the same time to keep one foot on the ground.
I like to try to hit all of my dives.
Whether being battered by the surf or swimming through the gentle undulating surface of lakes, I find inspiration in the movement of water. Sometimes I think about the journey the water has traveled, reconnecting me to the larger cycles of nature.
I want to swim in both directions at once. Desire success, court failure.
I usually go to the swimming pool if I want to swim.
I'm a curious person, and I always like to test new waters, and I've always jumped into the cold water and then started to think about how to swim.
I swim like a fish and I have an amazing kick.
Either you decide to stay in the shallow end of the pool or you go out in the ocean.
