Since the beginning of third quarter, after winter break, my aquatics P.E. class has been doing swim. It has been a lot of fun, but also challenging and tiring. Right now we are mainly working on backstroke and butterfly, and we already learned freestyle and breaststroke. Butterfly is by far my worst stroke, and it takes a long time to learn how to do. My best stroke is definitely breaststroke. This stroke just kind of came naturally to me and I am pretty good at it. We are also working on flip turns and other types of turns for other strokes. These are pretty hard to become good at, but I have fun practicing them. One last thing we worked on was relay turns.
Today we get to use all of these skills in our first meet. It is just an intersquad meet so we are the only school, and it is mainly just to show us how a normal meet runs. Nevertheless it is still like a meet and I am kinda scared because it is my first. Our coach told me that we each are going to have four events: two individual races, and two relays. I'm pretty sure I will get the 50 breaststroke, but other than that I am not sure. I don't really care as long as I don't have to do butterfly. I am very excited about his and it should be a lot of fun.
