Schwim some more!

Avery's second swim meet!  We set goals to get the 25 free under 40 seconds and the 25 back under 50 seconds -- both of which she succeeded in, actually she killed it.  I know that the Upper St Clair pool is yards, but I'm not sure about the CM pool.  Even if we had to convert to meters for an apples to apples comparison I am happy to report that she did make her goals.

25 Free - 34.01 - Overall 29/35.  Converted to meters that equates to 37.75.
25 Back - 42.18 - Overall 32/34.  Converted to meters that equates to 46.81.  Until 3/4 of the way across she had a solid chance to win her heat, but didn't hold it.  I'm hoping for a heat win so she gets a duck -- that will hold her over for a while until we can get her to the point where she can win ribbons.
25 x 4 Free relay - 1:22:49 - she was the first swimmer.  Overall 16/21 and a crazy better time than her first relay.

She was having fun.  You could tell from across the pool area as she was nearly vibrating.

I'm hoping she can make progress on her breast or butterfly as those events are less frequented and would give her a better shot.
