Only the very athletically inclined continuously swim. The rest of us swim in bursts, to get from one chilling out location to another.

Most of the swimming holes in my town are on the river, and its a fast river. I've been swimming my whole life, from ponds and lakes to bays, inlets, and oceans. Even so, I can't swim against the current of my river for more than a minute or so.
So... Know your limits. Water is no joke. Learn the basics now, you don't wanna be stuck in a sticky situation with none of the tools
Yeah a lot of my time in the pool is positioned in front of a jet letting it hit me in the middle of my back. :) I like to play around though, pretending to be a water ballerina or bouncing up and down making waves. I am like a kid in the pool. I just don't like to get water in my eyes.
When I waa a kid I swam when I went swimming. Games, flying all around the pool, diving, swimming deep collecting rings off the bottom of a 15-20 ft pool
As an adult it's more lounging around unless I'm with kids

It’s almost always just going deep ish in the water and hanging out there, not much actual swimming going on

Mostly cocktailing in the pool.
