How #swimming helped Annette Kellerman

 

Here again the testimony from long ago about the swimming helping the body.

Annette Kellerman has this problem:

"My early physical misfortune has turned out to be the greatest blessing that could have come to me. Without it I should have missed all the grim struggle upward and the reward that waited at the end of it all."

Annette Kellermann was just six years old when she developed weakness in her legs. This required her to wear painful steel braces and to help recovery, her parents enrolled Annette in swim classes.

As a teen her legs recovered and she became a champion swimmer, a record holder in the 100 yard and mile races in her native Australia. But more than just swimming, she became famous for advocating for women’s rights.

"I can’t swim wearing more stuff than you hang on a clothesline," she once said.

Therefore, if Penang state government could build more semi Olympic size swimming, you could see how the health of people could be improved.

Are you waiting for it to happen or you want it to be happened?
