Bode had swim meets scheduled for the previous two weekends; sadly, each meet was cancelled due to rain and lightening. Fortunately, yesterday's meet was completed, and all events were successfully swum.
Bode's first event was the butterfly leg of the 200-medley relay. Ashley did the filming, while you can see me standing at the other end of the pool. I was a volunteer timer.
His split was 26.7 seconds, which was his fastest time ever. His next event was the 100-yard butterfly. It's really hard to hear Ashley cheering :-)Bode's next event was the lead-off leg of the 200-freestyle relay. The kid in lane 3 was very fast--he swam a 24.5 or so; Bode's split was 25.5, which was probably the fastest he's ever swum that length. It was nice to have the boy next to him. Ashley didn't record the entire race, but I must say Bode's team ultimately won the race.
Finally, Bode swam a leg of the 100-free relay. I think his split was around 57; he swam in the low 56's last week, so not a best, but still a very good swim.
I think Choctaw won this tri-meet; there were two other teams, but they had very small swim teams. Bode's school swims against Fort Walton on Wednesday, and that will be tough. Many of the very fast boys on the Coast swim team swim for the Vikings, so it will be nice to see Bode get pushed. Pleasant week to all.
