So far the swimming season has been great!<\/p>\n
I have only missed one week of practice and that was when i had foot surgery.<\/p>\n
So far, I have been to every swim meet.<\/p>\n
Here’s the update on how I’m doing.<\/p>\n
#1 Practice meet<\/p>\n
– EVERY one had to swim a 50 of each stroke…no complaints.<\/p>\n
– We swam against ourselves and it just gave the coaches of what are abilities are and what we need to work on.<\/p>\n
– Wouldn’t affect our ranking<\/p>\n
50 Freestyle- 1st place with 34.27 seconds (stronger stoke, time could be better)<\/p>\n
50 Butterfly- 2nd place with 44.23 seconds (weakest stroke, combined with 13\/14 boys and ended up coming in 2nd still overall!)<\/p>\n
50 Backstroke- 1st place with 42.00 seconds (strongest stroke, time could be better)<\/p>\n
50 Breaststroke- 3rd place with 43+ seconds (very weak on this stroke, not sure on time, I know my time could be way better)<\/p>\n
#2 B.R vs. R.O<\/p>\n
– 1st real meet<\/p>\n
– On flip turn during 50 free I swallowed water slowing me down, not common, and timers weren’t accurate.<\/p>\n
– Since 50 free was so close to IM and 100 free, I couldn’t swim the two events because of trouble breathing.<\/p>\n
– Won by 100 points<\/p>\n
Medley relay- 2nd place with 2:29.87 (I started the group off good with backstroke, once again we combined heats with the 13\/14 boys)<\/p>\n
50 Freestyle- 4th place with 37.90 seconds (time could be a lot better)<\/p>\n
100 IM- N\/A<\/p>\n
100 Free- N\/A<\/p>\n
Free Relay- 2nd place with 2:45.90 (combined with 13\/14 boys, and I finished our group off)<\/p>\n
#3 B.R vs E.C<\/p>\n
– I had to make up for the two events that I didn’t swim last week, coach was desperate to see me swim them.<\/p>\n
– Coach was also seemed to avoid putting me in 50 backstroke.<\/p>\n
– Meet ended right before our Free relay because of thunderstorm. Even though the other team forfeit, we won by far.<\/p>\n
– Asthma attack in water during 3rd lap out of 4 in 100 Free, coach regrets putting me in two long events so close to each other.<\/p>\n
Medley relay- 2nd place with the time of 2:39:85 (started the group off well with backstroke)<\/p>\n
50 Free- 1st place with 32.75 seconds (good time and flip turn really helped me get ahead this time, didn’t swallow water [: )<\/p>\n
100 IM- 2nd place with a time of 1:31.62 (coach was proud, I hope to do IM again)<\/p>\n
100 Free- N\/A (did get a participation ribbon though [: )<\/p>\n
Free relay- N\/A (thunderstorm)<\/p>\n
I will keep posting up my scores and times. Hopefully, the coach will put me in 50 backstroke \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
This weeks swim meet, I heard, that it was gonna be tough.<\/p>\n
Wish me luck!<\/p>\n
Oh ya!<\/p>\n
I have a good friend, Justin, whose a year older than me but he has a youtube account where him and his friends make very entertaining videos.<\/p>\n
They make parodies to songs and then make music videos to them. (Well, most of their videos)<\/p>\n
But, I was talking to him and his friend how Kelly and I have a youtube account.<\/p>\n
So, after a while of conversation about who has the best videos, he challenged Kelly and I to a face off against their latest video, Joe a parody to Low.<\/p>\n
Kelly and I are still in progress of finishing our first face off video against them.<\/p>\n
Of coarse, we will win \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
