Greendale Swimming meet

A few weeks ago I entered in a swimming meet. The reason why is because I love swimming and I am in a swim club. A swim meet is when all the clubs in your region get together and do swimming races. We had clubs from Hastings, Napier and Central Hawkes bay. I entered in a lot of races and got some awards after the meet. I got 2nd for the 11-12 year old girls 100 meter breaststroke. 5th in the 11-12 year old girls 50 meter fly. Plus 6th in the 11-12 year old girls 100 meter backstroke. Afterwards I was really proud of my results. I got quite a few Personal bests.

Sun devils swimming club



This year I have joined the Heretaunga Sun devils swimming club.  I swim three times a week for 1 an a half hours.  My Head coach is William Benson who went the the 2007 Beijing Olympics.  While he is gone I have two other amazing coaches Franco and Lucas.  For half a hour we are up in the dry room doing exercises then swimming for a hour.  Since I have been there I have learnt so many things like how to dive properly off a diving block and I learnt either when you dive or push of the wall you do 3 to 4 fly kicks, then 2 or 3 arm strokes before you breath.
