Because Quote by Summer Sanders

“I started swimming when I was four because my brother wanted to join a swim team, and I wanted to do what he did. They said I had to be six, but if I could swim a lap, then I could participate. So I swam a lap, and the rest is history.” quote by Summer Sanders — Download Open image
