Elissa's Swimming Event

Today, Elissa had a swim meet and she finished first place in 50 breast. Woo hoo! Her time: 36.75 seconds.

I kind of lost track of her while filming when she did her turn. She's the one with the black cap in lane 4. I would advise turning the volume down to avoid being startled by the loud whistle, buzz, and cheering.



I was a timer for the first part of the meet, getting splashed every time a swimmer dove. Refreshing! It was so hot and humid in the pool area.

These kids are great. I get tired after one lap when I swim, but they go on and on without stopping. Elissa did 71 laps in 30 minutes during her T-30 test last month. She could have done more; she had a stomachache that day.
