I was never really good at swimming in my opinion.
It was really awesome to see my friends swim My favourite race had to be the one with Cole and Ian and Lachlan.They all chose to dive Mr Smith hit the clappers together and they were of .Cole was taking the lead closely behind Ian, and behind Ian, Lachlan, it was neck and neck between Cole and Ian it was like two cats fighting over a ball of string. Everyone was shouting and jumping in excitement I was not cheering for Cole or Ian I was cheering for Lachlan even though he was not winning I was good that he was giving it a go. Personally myself I could not swim a medley.Cole was on his last lap it was free style this was going to be a close finish.Cole came first Takahe was cheering because Cole was in that team Lachlan was finished everyone was cheering for him even though he came last.
Now it was my turn flutter board was my specialty I was racing Van Oliver we had to start in the pool 3...2...1.... bang Mr Smith clapped the clappers and the race started I was taking the lead! I can't believe it I was first but Van was close behind in fact now he was be side me I slowed down a bit because I was tired but forgot that Van was beside me now he was first I was sad because there was now way I was going to catch up but I was quite happy that I was second though I finished second and Oliver finished third and Van finish first.
After we had finished all of our races we did for fun some relays. They sorted us into our houses Takahe,Tui,Weka,Kea. The girls were down the other side of the pool and the boys were on the opposite end. I was third in the Takahe line.It was my turn I was confident but I had done it before so I was not so scared. I jumped on to the giant surf board and a was off I kicked as hard as I could. I was on the other side and was cheering on the other people on.Final the last person was going across to the other side we won yay! I was so happy we all hopped out of the pool.
Swimming sport was so awesome I can't wait till next year!!
