Would you like to be a 9 year old kid swimming most of the events you could participate in? Well that's what I had to do at my swim meet against Hadley Farm's Great White Sharks. I swam Freestyle, Backstroke and Breaststroke. My first event was Freestyle so I would use a lot of energy to swim.
Freestyle is a fast stroke and I could get a better rank than other strokes because I practice it more than other strokes. Before I swam someone got disqualified for a false start. As I got ready, when the buzzer went off I sprinted as fast as I could and when I reached the wall my mom told me I was second because my last breath took to long. Also once all my other events were finished I had to swim Freestyle relay. I was the second person in the relay and the person who started before me was a bit slow so I used all my might and beat a person in relay. Now I will have to get ready for Backstroke.
As I got in the water I was a little cold, but when the race started I sprinted with a lot of power and when I touched the wall my mom told me I was in fourth place.Then I went to dry off and my mom told me at least I didn't bump into the lane dividers and I swam straight. I still had to do Breaststroke so I couldn't leave.
When the announcer said go I dived into the water with a great start and used a bunch of energy to reach to finish and when I finished my mom told me I was third to finish. I'm not as fast as before because I don't practice it a lot.
When all of the events were finished, the meet official announced that my swim team won the meet. If you forgot what I swam, it was Freestyle, Backstroke and
Breaststroke. That was an incredible day I will never forget!
