WOW!

Hey it's Splash again! Last night at my swim practice, we had a set of 4, 200 frees. My coach said if I went 2 minutes 20 seconds I could get out half n hour early. Well on my last 200 (which I all out sprinted) I didn't get that time. I went 2 minutes 22 seconds. (which is 4 seconds UNDER my best time in a meet) Then I got the news. We were doing the set again. This time I was pumped up and ready to go for that time. I swam my 200 frees. Then it was time for the last one. I gave it everything I could. I kicked so hard I thought my legs were gonna fall off. I pulled so long and fast I thought my arms were gonna break. My heart was beating really fast and I started to get tired but then went even faster. I finally touched the wall. I looked at my time and..... had a HUGE smile on my face. I told my coach and he said that I could get out and go home. My friends got out too because one went very fast, one went under her best meet time, and my other guy friends, well, they whined because they thought it was unfair we got out. The only reason my coach let them get out is because they had some fast times too. Oops I gotta go eat dinner. I'll talk to you guys later. Thanks for reading!
