Parkway Meet

I went to my second swim meet at Parkway North High School. My Dad took me on Saturday. Unfortunately, my events weren't until Sunday.

This time I swam the 25 and 50 freestyle. This was the first time I did the 50 and I forgot to turn and go back.

I was a little scared because I was at a new pool, but I did great. Mom and Dad are really proud of how hard I try.

Afterwards we went to Red Robin to celebrate.

Swim Meet Me in St. Louis

I competed in my first swim meet yesterday. It was very cool. I swam in 25 backstroke and the 25 freestyle.

I didn't win either heat. In backstroke I kept looking back to make sure I wouldn't hit my head. Mom and Dad said that if I had just kept swimming I would have won.

In the freestyle I was the only 5 yr. old in the heat, but I still only came in a few seconds behind the other swimmers.

Hopefully, I will get to go again in January.

Swim-a-thon Fundraiser


I don't know if I have mentioned it, but I love to swim. Last night I told my mom and dad that when I am in the water I get energy.
My dad thinks that I may be the love child of my mom and the man from Atlantis (Patrick Duffy).
Last week we swam with the big kids. We got to do our own stuff and we dived. I like the freestyle the best.
But now I want to get the the heart of the matter. I swim for Clayton Shaw Park (CSP) which is part of U.S.A. Swim, the group that trains future Olympians. We need to raise money so we are having a swim-a-thon.
I you want to sponsor me please leave a comment and my mom and dad will get back to you.
