Sectionals Day 1
April 20th, 2007 at 8:57 pm (Swimming)
Today is the first day of the meet, and I thought I was only swimming the 500. Until last night, when we went to check in, and found out Kate had signed me up for the 200 backstroke without telling me.
But 200 back was fun, because I hadn’t swum it in seven months so I didn’t know what I was going for. I was seeded dead last because I only had a meters time, so the heat sheet said I had a 2:28, when the next fastest time was 2:10. I ended up getting 2:10.87, and 27th out of 29. Hey, I haven’t swam any backstroke in the last three weeks, OK?
I swam the 500 three hours later, and I got 5:03.83 — a two second drop. I took 11th out of 31.
This is my 200 backstroke, if anyone wants to watch it.
