Clumsy on land but great in water

Post Reply New Topic

I seem to be like a penguin in that regard. I am told my running gait is odd and I often have balance issues, especially on uneven surfaces.

However, when I enter the water my body just seems in a perpetual state of flowing through the water and I love the texture.

Is anyone similar in this regard?

I'm much better at swimming than I am running! I love swimming underwater I like to imagine I'm a mermaid.

It took me a while to learn how to swim but as soon as I did I instantly got the hang of it. I'd much rather swim than play land sports any day.

i can't play any sports with balls because of a spatial learning disability, but i was on the swimming team and became a lifeguard.

Oh yeah, I suck at team sports, was a slow runner, and stuff but I'm a lifeguard.

<--- Good at drowning.

I'm neither, but I'm uncoordinated basketball is a good example. I could never run, dribble, and pass the ball all at the same time.

Yup. I stumble around like a drunkard most of the time but I can swim and climb better than most.
