Last Swim Meet

Tonight was the last swim meet of the season.  Collin was actually said that this was the last one and I was surprised.  He made the best of it by enjoying playing with his friends on the team while waiting to race.  We were not sure if we were even going to have a Meet today because of all the rain.  It cleared up about an hour before we needed to be there and did not rain at all during the Meet. 

Collin's results were:

Mixed Medley, Heat #3 - 6th.  He said he thought he swam fast and was 2nd.  He did make up time for the other team mates and touched the wall 2nd but he was not the last swimmer in the medley in his lane.

Free style, Heat #3 - 2nd.  Based on the video I took below, it was REALLY close.  I thought Collin got first and so did he.  I was not upset about this by the time we walked back to his chair to wait for the next race.

Back stroke, Heat #1 - 5th.  He was last off the wall again.  We talked about this before to not look at the other swimmers and push off when he hears the horn.  He has a habit now that is hard for him to break.  He also swam more crocked than he usually does which make him hit the rope. 

His main priority tonight was to eat and play games.  Just like a boy!

Here he his during the free style race.  He is the swimmer in the lane at the bottom of the video.
