i never in my life thought that i will learn swimming tat too when i am this old.. I am undoubtedly the most slowest and pathetic swimmer of all time if we exclude my close friend Sakkar :D..
On Day1 my teacher was shocked by seeing my swimming abilities, i donnno if she eva saw a guy walking that fast in the 3 feet 6 inches swimming pool.. Yes i successfully ran all the way when others were swiming.. One thing i don understand is how come every one is floating man.. I cant even hold something and float.. On day2 my instructor gave me fins.. They looked so good and comfartable and i was able to finish the lap in four turns minimum :D Felt soooo good.. But i was not able to stand on my fins and was drowning down in a 3'6 pool.. imagine ur legs bending off and drowning.. scary i say..
And on Day 3 she jus took them back and made me finless swimmer again.. but after practicing for 3 hrs seperately in a week i finally am able to swim 3/4th of the pool even if i am drinking 3/4th liters of chlorine water.. Cant help it man.. I know ppl who can swim will advice me to keep my mouth shut but believe me i am not some one who can keep his mouth shut even when i think i am taking my last breath.. cant help it tats my character dude.. i don care wateva happens i will swim atleast one lap this sem pakka.. Mark my words buddy..

Hi Michael Phelps (in the making)
Congrats for the Week 1 ! Incidentally its never too late to learn swimming... and I too have been thinking on the same lines for almost 2 decades now...!
Well I've yet to learn, and soon may give it a try too, may be along with my daughter.... :-)
Hope to see India winning few Gold medals in the next Olympics... :-)
hehehe.. I dont know if its never too late but i think u will have to give double the effort with age.. The other day i saw a toddler swimming.. I was shocked..
Well Yes...! Not just Double, but four times the effort is needed and I'm not sure if its gonna be that easy - but believe this summer - I'm gonna give it a try!
I'm sure you'd be on course to the Dream Gold @ Olympics by now.... Keep swimming Phelps (in the making)
