i am an average teenage girl...i guess.
i have brown hair, not too long, but not too short either. i have multi-colored eyes (brown, green, blue, yellow & black), and i about 5'4ft and that's about it physically.
i play soccer, i play the flute and am learning the french horn, i love to read, hang out, go crazy, write, be myself.
i love to listen to music. almost any kind of music sits with me...but some types, i just can't stand. rock n' roll or heavy metal is basically my favorite.
i am still in school, and i am crazy for taking the classes that i take...
and well, that's about it.

ok..so i've been running track/cross country since i was 7. (i'm 16 now) and i also used to swim year round when i was 11-14 but i ended up quitting to focus more on running. but lately i have just gotten SO sick of running. its just like it lost something, ya know? it seems like i only do it because i have to and i dont really enjoy it like i used to. i also really miss swimming like a lot i loved it and i kinda want to keep swimming, but i know since i haven't swam in so long i wouldn't be very good. and i seriously don't know how to tell my parents i want to stop running thats like unheard of and all of my best friends are on track. i still have 2 more years of high school and i dont want to spend them doing something i dont enjoy, but i do want the letter in that sport to put on college applications. so i really dont know what to do! should i just keep running and stick it out until the end of high school? or start swimming again? (i can't do both) sorry its so long! (link)

may i ask why you can't do both?
but if track has lost its special thing for you, then why keep doing it?
i think that you should go for the swimming team. i know that since you haven't swam in a while that it will be hard to get back into the swing of things, but that is what the practices are for. you will get better faster depending on how hard you work for it.
as for the parentals...talk to them. ask them what they think of you doing swimming instead of track. and if they are the kind of parents that don't want you to quit, then do both swimming and track. swimming and track aren't in the same season so you can train for swimming and then go for running in the spring. plus swimming will keep you in shape for the track season.
i hope i helped, and that you get to do what you like.
