Dixie Swim Meet 6/14/14

Last Saturday Chloe had her first swim meet of the season. She did 4 races: 50 Meter Butterfly (Fly); 50 Meter Backstroke; 50 Meter Freestyle; 200 Meter Individual Medley (IM). 
She loves swimming but loves her brother even more.

 Getting Ready to Race---looking out over the pool

 In the water for her backstroke...
 Hanging out in the ten between races...

She had a good meet. She took a 3rd overall in her IM and a fourth overall in her butterfly. Don't know about her backstroke-they haven't ever sent out the official results yet. We know that she totally killed it in her Freestyle race in her heat-she was almost a lap ahead of some of the girls...and she also got a Personal best time of 41 seconds, which is almost 2 seconds faster than what she was swimming it last year. We don't know about her overall standing in that one yet either.

Here is a video of her freestyle race-it is amazing to watch her form in the water and also how fluid she is especially on her turn she doesn't even really slow down. I am having problems uploading this video to my blog so if you want to see it you can go here to watch it.
