Just Keep Swimming.

My son had his very first swim meet this week. He competed in the freestyle, breaststroke and backstroke.

A friend's son was on the opposing team. Check out this great start.

And his super smooth, nearly splashless stroke.

He pushed it hard all the way to the wall for a very strong finish.

Here is one of our teammates...

swimming strong...

and checking out to see where he placed.

We all cheered for the other team during their races. This is the 25 yard breaststroke.

Perfect form.

Here's the start of my son's breaststroke race.

He had great form for someone who only learned the stroke last week.

Here he is getting ready for the start of the 25 yard backstroke race. Check out that concentration.

It's a clean start...

and a strong finish.

(Again, not bad for someone who couldn't swim on his back two weeks ago.)

Here's my friend's son during his backstroke race... again with the perfectly smooth stroke.

He's great to watch.

So our grand total for the day was a first in the backstroke and a third in the breaststroke and a ribbon for freestyle.

All in all everyone did fantastic and had a great time!

PS - I know it has been a while since I've posted any pictures but I've been really busy. Really, really, really busy. Like getting ready to launch a big project or two busy. And we're almost ready. Almost, but not quite.

But trust me... you'll be the first to know!
