Ao3 swimming (athletic based sport)

In this unit I will be talking about performance in swimming and I will be evaluating my performance.
In this graph I will show my time for different distance in swimming.

Distance
50 m
25m
Time
39 seconds
15 seconds
Time
 20 seconds
10 seconds

In my first trial of these distance I did not do as well as I expected. This was because it was my first time on having a swimming test and I was under pressure, so I might have been nerves and the fact I only started swimming four weeks ago. 
In my second trial I got a better score and a certificate. This was mainly because I had more swimming lessons and I was prepared for anything.
In most of or lessons we learnt the breast stroke and back stroke, this was because I was in the top group and my teacher thought these were more advanced. Since we manly focused on these two strokes, I used these strokes in my test.

The training I done to improve was to go swimming regularly. This is the most effective and he easiest way to improve in swimming.
Strenghts
My strengths are the breast stroke and the back stroke. This is mainly because I practise with these strokes more often. I am also good with the dive in, this is important as it helps me to get a good lead races.
Weakness
My weaknesses are swimming for a long distance; this is because I struggle with my stamina and speed. I also struggle with breathing under water for long, this is mainly because i can not hold my breath long under water.  
Improvement
To improve on my weakness I will have to do more swimming practise and go swimming training. I will also do some arobic exercise.
