Some PRs

Bode's swim team had an intrasquad meet today.  It's more of a fund-raiser, but the kids do some swimming and race each other.  Before starting to work, Bode took a pre-Mom's day picture with Ashley.

Bode swam in two events:  the 50-yard butterfly and the 50-yard freestyle.  There were only two 11 - 12 year olds brave enough to swim the 50-fly.  Bode is 11, while the boy he swam against is 12, so I told him that next year, Bode will be dominating.  Bode swam a personal record of 36.5 seconds, breaking his previous PR by seven seconds.  Here's the movie--he really is starting to look like he knows what he's doing.

He then swam the 50-free.  Here are some action shots.  Note Ashley is in these pictures because she volunteered to be a meet timer.

Bode swam the 50-free in just under 34 seconds, breaking his previous PR by almost three seconds. 

At the end of the meet, the parents that bid the most got to have their kids put a pie in the face for one of the coaches.  Bode didn't do this, but the movie is still pretty funny.

It is a bit cloudy and overcast here today, so not sure of the plan.  Hopefully we'll figure something out and have some fun :-)  Pleasant weekend to all.
