Loooong Course Swim

We are doing both summer swim and long course swim. Last year, we had no idea what in the world long course even meant, but now we are practically swim experts! Most people will either choose to do summer league or just stay with long course, but we have decided to do both. It's making for a bit of a crazy schedule, but we really want to girls to understand what year-round swim is all about, and they don't seem to be minding so far. The first long course meet was a small intrasquad meet, and Kacy wasn't really into it, so we just had Adilyn do a few events. Her very first event was a 200 freestyle. When she saw the pool, she was quite intimidated, with good reason! It's a long way down to that wall! She did okay for her very first race, and she got her first B time in freestyle. A B time is the lowest time standard, but it's still a great accomplishment. She went back the next day and did a quick 50 breaststroke and 50 fly. She said those were much easier! I am so proud of these girls for the hard work that they are putting into swim! I hope they continue to enjoy it this much :)
