I am 16 years old and I have never joined a swim team of any sort. This year is the first year our school is able to create a swim team by combining schools. I really want to join but I am so nervous. My cross country season will have just ended and I would like to try swimming before track season. When I go swimming, I can only swim maybe 6-8 laps before I feel exhausted and take a couple minute rest. I swim one lap freestyle, and then breaststroke the next lap. The pool is only 75 ft, 25 yards. Am I doomed if I join the swim team? My arm strength is absolutly horrible since I only run and I get tired so fast. What are the swim events? I think I would die if its more than 50 meters. I am pathetic
