Swim Meet!

Today's swim meet owned!

It was with some school I've never really heard of. My events were:
  1. 200 Yard Medley Relay
  2. 50 Yard Freestyle
  3. 200 Yard Freestyle Relay
It's basically what I did last time, but without the IM. So my first relay, we didn't get disqualified!!! Instead, we got first, that's right, FIRST. I was the anchor, or the last person to swim in my group, and I swum 2 laps of freestyle. It was pretty awesome.

Then I went for my 50 yard freestyle. This is my event, this is what I train for, this is why I swim, for this event. I'm being dramatic but this is the event that I excel at. Well I swum, I got 2nd by 0.15 seconds, but I got a new personal record!! 25.90 seconds. To me that's pretty damn fast, and I'm pretty proud of myself.

Finally my 200 yard freestyle relay came. I was first this time. I swum an OK time, nothing extraordinary, but we got first!! I was very very happy again, happy that we won, and happy we didn't get disqualified. We owned.

Well overall my school raped the other school. It was a total shoe-in from the beginning my coach said, but I dunno, I think the other school did pretty well. We were raped last week, so I'm sure that team was thinking the same thing at the time. I'm just happy I got 2 firsts and a new personal record. It was a good meet.

And a bunch of my friends from track came to watch. It totally made my day to see so many of my friends coming to see us swim. Ryan and I went over and hung out there in between our events. Kristin came, Roger came for a bit, and a bunch of our other good friends. We talked for a while, we watched the swimming, it was a good time. They left of course before the last event of the day, and it's a good thing they did because it wasn't till about 6. It was still pretty awesome of my friends to come watch our team swim. Kudos to them.

It was a good day. I think finally I'm beginning to enjoy swim season. My mom was right; I'd like it eventually. Well I have another one Friday, so I'll blog about that one too.

Check in later!!
