What is a non-sequitur?A non-sequitur is all about taking a giant logical jump that is totally unreasonable.

Your Answer: Swimming is good exercise, so swimmers are more fit than runners.

Why? As I said earlier: "A non-sequitur is all about taking a giant logical jump that is totally unreasonable." The sentence is making the false assumption that since Swimming is good exercise, so swimmers are more fit than runners.Logically speaking, we cannot take a definite truth and turn it into an all-encompassing generalization.

Hope this helps =)
Have a nice day!
