[quote=Anonymous]I was a good swimmer but never going to make the national team. I ended up doing synchronized swimming, then masters and open water swimming. Is your son interested in water polo or distance swimming? He would also have a good skill base for training for triathlons. I saw lots of good runners who weren't good swimmers, and the swimming ability is hard to pick up an a later age. A friend from my swim club became the triathlon world champ. Being able to swim will set him up if he wants to do rowing or sailing. Even if he doesn't pursue other water disciplines, be happy that he will be water-safe and have a sport he can do for the rest of his life. Going into high school, he also has the chance to try new land-based sports.[/quote]
