Default Can you swim? How far?

As the subject asks, can you swim? If so, how far? Lastly how'd you learn.

I suck at swimming long distances and I hafta be able to swim 100m. Anyway to learn without joining those embarassing 'so you're an adult and you suck at swimming' classes. :exnbp:

i swim for an hour every day

if you're a noob to swimming, 100m aint that bad. just dont over exert yourself, you might pass out. well, maybe not though, cause 100m is nothing

I learned when I was about 1 or 2.... I fell into a pool and just started swimming. Of course I don't remember it, but mom tells me everyone paniced till they saw me laughin and having a good time.

I always knew how.
