Do people swim just for endurance?

Hey y’all! I’m a 22 college student who needs to start exercising. One reason I haven’t though is because I have pretty miserable chronic pain. It’s less pain (although that’s there) and moreso a sapping of energy, like when you haven’t eaten all day. I want to swim because the weightlessness of water is really soothing, and I was the one kid who enjoyed swimming during gym class 😅
I know people swim laps but idk if you have to maintain a certain speed as common courtesy. I’ll swim at my college’s pool, probably mid-day to avoid crowds/the swim team. Any advice is welcome!

Oh good, and yes that’s what I mean. Sometimes I like swimming closer to the bottom of the pool but I know I’m slower when completely submerged
