Lightning Strikes at Swim Meet

 Chloe had her last swim meet of the summer season last Saturday. It was another big one. The only bad thing about it was the weather-it started lightning and thundering about 4 hours into the meet. Right before Chloe's next race. They ended up canceling the whole meet and she missed her last three events. She was bummed because at this meet they were giving out medals to the top three instead of just ribbons like they usually do. She kept saying that she was going to get five gold medals like Michael Phelps-haha. Well she got two before the meet was canceled. 
Here relay team took first in fact they totally smoked the competition. They were all so excited. 
She also got a gold medal in the backstroke-which no one was expecting because she hasn't swum a backstroke in competition in months and it's not really her specialty. But she did it! 1st out of about 20 girls. I have no doubt she would have gotten her five golds had the meet not been canceled.
