Don't drown.

Can't make the swim team if your dead.

Answer 4

I just did something similar to that for my swim test, you'll be ok.  good luck!

Answer 5

um, dont fail? :P

approach this with confidence. Don't worry. If it is timed, dont worry about the time, just focus on getting everything done.

If you think mathematically, you're only swimming 300-some metres. Thats only 12 laps of a 25 m pool.

honestly, you'll be fine.

Answer 6

Swim Ellie, Swim!!!!
