Okay you guys, so my decision is to quite swimming or keep at it.
Okay so I Love swimming. Swimming is my passion and it is my hobby.
I have been swimming for at least two years and have done really well! Here are a few of my times.
50 metres freestyle - 33 seconds
100 metres backstroke - 1 minute and 11 seconds
25 metres butterfly - 15 seconds
So as I said swimming is my passion and I want to do it for a career when I am older, I want to be in the Olympics and win a medal, that is a dream I really believe in...well I used to.
For my swimming I have sacrificed a lot like I have moved schools for my swimming I have woken up at 4'o clock in the morning to squeeze in a training session before school starts, I have done this for at least 8 months. I have been bullied because of my swimming and I have joined a boarding school for my swimming. Basically if I hadn't joined swimming my life would-be-so-different!!!
Now I must admit that swim training is really hard.
But the worst thing about it is that when I am walking to the pool area knowing that I have to go through one and a half houres of hard-core stuff I see people (class-mates) on thier phones, having end of day fun and socializing. I don't know it just makes me so ... jealous I guess.
Plus my coach is really hard on me and if you do something bad he will scream at you and tell you to get out of the pool and go home and if you do something good then he will just keep quiet. He doesn't give you credit for anything and that makes me feel really sad, like I might as well just give up.
And I have talked to him so many times but he just won't change that's who he is and that's that.
I have been trying to decide this for ages and I am swimming on and off and I don't want it to go on so please help me decide you guys I am really stuck!!!
Should I quit swimming or not?
