Mao was an excellent swimmer.
One of the reasons he invited Kruschev to hang out with him at the pool while he made fun of him.
Yeah, Mao did some propaganda thing at one point where he swam across a river to i guess show people he was still healthy, and apparently it was a big deal? I don’t remember all the details.

the whole ordeal about the Yangtze river
Yeah that one was silly but he was actually a good swimmer
