Should I give up?
I'm a junior and I've been swimming since ninth grade. I've gotten pretty decent and would like to keep swimming in college, but I don't know if I'm ready or not. Anyone got anyadvice?

dude if its something that you really want to do then go for it. i was a freshman last year and i started out as the slowest guy on the team. but i knew that if i really wanted it i can be fast. and at the end of the year i got the most improved award. and that just goes to show that if you really want something then you can do it. so go for it buddy-----TINK

Question A) Do you enjoy it? Question B) Does it add something to your life that you would miss? (friends, social aspect, etc.) If yes to both those ?s I would say keep with it

Keep going when the comp gets tough you get tougher and always know that your only limitation is your own standards keep going at it if there is passion there is progression

Keep at it. Until you are physically incapable of swimming, KEEP SWIMMING! No matter how hard it may be, just keep at it!
