I'm taking my 4 yr old for swim class today. Since I won't be wearing my Flex in the water how would I log the activity? I will just be holding and helping her learn to swim. Essentially, walking around in the water, not doing laps. Should I log it as walking?

    I log pool time as swimming, but only lig half the time. I am working harder in the water than in land, but obviously not as hard as lap swimming. To compare for accuracy, MFP has a leisure swimming entry I think.
