My first test!
Alright so when you read this title, you probably thought I was talking about a school test. Well no, I've already had about a billion of those. I'm talking about my first test, in swimming! We had to swim for 30 minutes straight (T30) and see how many yards we could get in. Let me tell you, it's not as easy as it sounds. I got 2400, and the person who got the most, (Matt) got 3050! It's REALLY hard and tiring. I took it out nice and quick, then kept a long pace, and then sped up on the last 5 minutes. I was wiped after that! I slept good that night, lemme tell you. Today was pretty tiring too. 7000 yards total! The chlorine was really strong today, so everyone was coughing like mad! My throat was burning, but I worked through it. After practice I chugged like my whole Propel. Our practices have been really hard, which isn't surprising I mean this is gold right? Oh and did you hear? The olympics isn't in Chicago! Some of you may be bummed, but I sure am happy. My chance at making it to the olympics would be in 2016, and I didn't want it to be in Chicago! I've been there a billion times! I wanted it to be somewhere exotic, and guess what? My dream came true! Brazil! How amazing is that? Oh wow, I just looking at the time and it's almost 10:00. Gotta go to bed! Thanks for reading!
