What should you do if you are comfortable? What should you do it if you're not comfortable? Covid-19 and the coronavirus pandemic is real. We just saw this week that the president got infected and foolishly hosted events without face coverings that subsequently infected many other people at a White house event. I know. This is insane.

SIP 088: Teaching Breaststroke Kick to Beginners

Swimming Ideas Podast ·
