Chloe had her second swim meet yesterday. She was a little bit nervous because she had to swim the butterfly (which is kind of hard for her), and also do a 100 meter individual medley (which consists of a 25 meter butterfly, a 25 meter backstroke, a 25 meter breaststroke, and a 25 meter freestyle). The Individual Medley is super hard-I tried to swim one just to see what it would take and almost died.
Here's how it went...
Her relay team took 1st. A girl Chloe knows from school ended up being on Chloe's swim team, they are both in the advanced group and have become pretty good friends. They have a lot of fun and are always glad when they get to be on the relay team together.
She took third in the Butterfly.
She took first in the Individual Medley. (This video is just her start of the IM it was to long to record the whole thing.)
She either took 1st or 2nd in the freestyle. We were timing the heats unofficially and she won her heat but there was girl in another heat who had a time pretty close to Chloe's. So we'll wait and see on Monday when they hand out the ribbons.
Chloe is just like a little fish I couldn't keep her out of the water even when it wasn't her turn to race. This meet was outside so I kept trying to get her to sit under the shade to no avail. She was either wading in the pool, following her coach around, or wanting to go in the end where you warm up just for a minute.

Holy cow, she is a great little swimmer! I am highly impressed - especially when she jumped off the starting block! I love Landon telling her to "push it!" ;)
