Our 7-year old competed in her first swim meet of the season last weekend. The previous year, we had signed her up for one indoor swimming competition, but she refused to start both of her races. This time around, she was far more prepared, having competed in a number of summer swim meets. She even learned to successfully dive off the starting block in the last month.
She swam in two races, 25 metre freestyle, followed by 25 metre breaststroke. For her freestyle swim, she finished 41st with a time of 27.40 seconds in a field of almost 60 (8 & under female) swimmers. And for her breaststroke race, she finished with a time of 35.22 seconds, and came in 21st out of 41 swimmers in her age group. But most importantly she had a lot of fun and didn't seem the least bit nervous...
