[quote=Anonymous]My experience is a lot of kids do low key or somewhat intense winter swim in elementary. By middle school many quit. The low key kids generally move onto other stuff and some portion of the more intense swimmers either burn out or find that the intensity of swim expected at older ages is incompatible with other interests. A few more quit halfway through high school. Some quit all together, some might continue to swim for fun on summer and high school teams. Some other kids transition from no or really casual winter swim to more intensity in middle school. These are the kids who hit puberty and suddenly realize they can be good and go all in. I have a couple of these though at least one of mine think is on the burn out mid high school trajectory.[/quote]
