Swim meet #1...Franklin vs. Forest Park






Today was the first swim meet of the year. Ben Franklin Fish vs. Forest Park Blue Fins, Franklin won but I'm not sure by how much. At one point the score was 366- Franklin to 187- Forest Park. I signed up for one event- 100 freestyle, but ended up competing in 4 events. The 4x50 meter medley relay which I swam the backstroke leg of it, (but we got DQ in that race) then I swam the 100 freestyle which I came in 10 out of 19 and added about 20 mili seconds onto my seed time, then I swam the 50 freestyle and took off 5 seconds and came in 8 out of 22,(on this race Brett brought his friends and they all cheered for me, and I won my heat in that so maybe their cheering helped :-) ) and then I swam on another relay team. It was 4x50 meter freestlye relay where we all swim the freestyle stroke. This was a home meet so I got up at 5:55 a.m left at 6:20 a.m so I could check-in at 6:30 a.m so I could warm-up at 6:45 a.m.This was a fun meet because I knew a lot of people on the other team.
