WHAT MAKES A CHAMPION?
Would you like to be very good at sport? Would you like to be a champion? An athlete must train very hard to be a champion? He must start training when he is young. An athlete learns to use his muscles. He uses his muscles to run faster and jump higher. Even babies lean to control their muscles. But athletes learn to control theirs much better. Some sports champions have big muscles. So weight lifters are often "muscle Men". But some champions have thin bodies.
Long-distance runners are often thin. They could not run very far with great big muscles! They have just enough muscle to run on and on. Many champions are small, but not thin. Have you seen gymnasts swing on rings and bars? Men gymnasts are small, but have big muscles. But young girl gymnasts are often quite slim. A champion needs good muscles and good control. A runner needs good leg
muscles to win his race. A girl gymnast needs good control to keep balance on a thin bar. But a champion must want to win.

SWIMMING HISTORY II
The lack of swimming in Europe during the Middle Ages is explained by some authorities as having been caused by a fear that swimming spread infection and caused epidemics. There is some evidence of swimming at seashore resorts of Great Britain in the late 17th century, evidently in conjunctions with water therapy. Not until the 19th century, however, did the popularity of swimming as both recreation and sport begin in earnest. When the first swimming organization was formed there in 1837, London had six indoor pools with diving boards. The first swimming championship was a 440-yard race, held in Australia in 1840 and annually thereafter. The Metropolitan Swimming Clubs of London, founded in 1869, ultimately became the Amateur Swimming Association, the governing body of British amateur swimming. National swimming federations were formed in several European countries from 1882 to 1889. In the United States swimming was first nationally organized as a sport by the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) on its founding in 1888. The Federation International de Nation Amateur (FINA) was founded in 1909.
