I'm a swimming lessons dropout!

I did Yellow, Orange and Red for sure. I'm not sure if I did Maroon or not. Not sure why I dropped out, but after I completed Red or Maroon I told my mom that I was never doing swimming lessons again. I wish she pushed back on that, but she just let it be.

Here's the thing... I love swimming! I always loved swimming. I love taking my kids swimming. They are all good swimmers and take lessons every year.

I wish I was a better swimmer. I don't care about being the guy who can swim dozens of lengths. I just want to do one length without being gassed. I have good muscular and cardiovascular endurance... except for when I swim. I'm going to try some of these tips pointed out here. I'd like to take some sort of adult lessons, but being a family man with 3 kids, it is hard to make time.
