first swim meet of 2011





Our first meet was last night against Sherwood. We have lots of friends on the opposing team so it was a fun rivalry! Maggie swam in 5 events- medley relay, back, free, butterfly and free relay- so we were there until 10pm (on a school night!). It was really fun and we won! Go Blue Dolphins! But the following day after practice Maggie was sad because she did not beat her own time. She had gotten a 5th place and 2- 8th places (out of 42 swimmers)! Her times were LESS THAN 1 SECOND "slower" than time trials. So then I had to show her how fast 1 second actually was. Hopefully she can improve and get one of the highly sought after "beat your own time" ribbons next week!
