What a difference an year has made:
The girls did extremely well in ACC Annual Swimming Championships!
The first day it was Tanya's turn .
She took part in 5 events that is permitted.
Her Results were as follows:
50 mts Breast Stroke - 1st Place
25 mts Breast Stroke - 2nd Place
25 mts Back Stroke - 2nd Place
50 mts Free Style - 4th Place
25 mts Butterfly - 5th Place.
All in all she did a fantastic job in all her events.
For three of her events she had to do heats and then a final...so it was a good day...with a lot of swimming to do...
The next day - Sunday was Riona's Category:
We had convinced her to give it a good try. She has had about 20 hours of swimming lessons in all so there is only so much you can expect.
She took part in
25 mts Breast Stroke - 4th Place
25 mts Free Style - 4th Place. ( By the way she swam breast stroke since she doesnt know any other stroke)
She had to do a heat and a final for each event, something that was hard to explain.She kept reminding me that "you said only two times" .By the time she swam 4 times she was enjoying it...That was the hard part a heat and a final for every event...She was really tired and just didnt want to do the finals...but she did without much noise eventually...she is growing up finally....
It was a great weekend to remember for the girls...they had fun and was exhausted that they were in bed at 7 pm....
Here are a few photos of the session!
