Jamie Swim Meet

27 Sep - Jamie had her 2nd swim meet and swam really well. She swam the 50m Breaststroke and improved 4.5 seconds and won 1st place. It was the first time she has won 1st place in her age group at a meet where the best swimmers were competing. Very proud of her. She won the event by 1.5 secs. She swam the 100m IM and improved 5 seconds and finished 4th. She swam the 100M Freestyle for the first time. The coach also put her as the anchor on the 100M Freestyle relay but one of the girls disqualified so the whole team was out. She has only to improve a little in a few events to qualify for the major championships in February in Berlin. She will swim some different events to get qualifyingtimes so we can see where she stands. We are very proud of her. She is practicing hard 4 nights a week for 1.5 hrs each. She earned two Personal Best ribbons and won a 1st place and a 4th place ribbon.
