Tonight we had our swim championships. The first night of championships the boys had to qualify. The second night the top 8 swimmers went back to compete for a medal. As you can see, there was no shortage of medals for these swimmers!
Each boy chose their 2 favorite strokes to swim and then the 100 IM. Since Brody is an awesome backstroker, he chose that and freestyle. He should have never chosen freestyle because every 9 year old kid chose it too. Brody ended up with a 4th place medal in backstroke and and 8th place medal in freestyle. He did not qualify for the 100 IM even though he swam his little heart out.
Nice dive B-Dog!
Getting ready for the race. Case is all business at these swim meets. He comes home after his morning practice and sleeps for about 2 hours. He then fuels up with healthy snacks and is ready to go.
Max, Luke, Case and Brody
Case chose to swim breaststroke, butterfly and the 100 IM. Would you believe it if i told you he got a 1st place medal in all three events for the 7 year old boys. His butterfly race was so close but somehow at the end he pulled through.
Ledger did not qualify to go back for the last day of championships but he did decided to go (on the night of his birthday) to cheer on his brothers.
I can almost guarantee that these 2 seven year olds are debating who swam the fastest race and who will win high point.
Sugar and the birthday boy.
Brody did not have his game on tonight but he still did good and had fun. He looks like he's swimming for the Olympic team!
Brody raced a 23:11 for backstroke and a 20:13 in freestyle.
Case-Man! It has been a fun summer at the club. Although it is waaaaaay too hot for me to sit outside for the first 6 hours of the day, I have very much enjoyed watching these three boys play tennis, golf and swim team.
