A New Season


Shilo had her first swim meet of the season on Saturday.  Since she has had a long swim break, is swimming in a higher age bracket, and likes to swim on the {fun} community team instead of in the intensely competitive year-round league for the summer season, I was anxious to see how she would fare.



She cut 3 seconds off of her 100 Free, and 4 seconds off of her 200 Free.  She missed her best 100 Back time by nanoseconds.

Since Shi doesn't swim on Sunday, often her favorite or best events are not an option (the 50 Free, 100 Fly, and 200 IM seem to typically be Sunday meet events).  I am proud of her willingness to swim the available Saturday events and give it her best shot.

In all, it was an excellent meet.  It's always good to get that first one over.

Nice job, Shi!
