I know that 90% of my blogposts are about my competitions; but they seem to be the most interesting thing I do. This particular meet was a free/fly meet. And it was awesome! I ended up doing freestyle and butterfly (I could have done the IM instead), and of course I was on the relay team.
Mummy, Daddy and I set off for Perugia at 9:00, so that we would have plenty of time to get lost and find our way again before the warmups at 10:45. We got to the pool without losing ourselves even once!
After nearly 40 minutes of worrying about swimming all by myself, everyone else on my team showed up and warmup drowning began. Our team, as one of the larger teams, had two warm up lanes. It wasn't enough.
Then they started the meet with fly, which I did rather well. It may not have been my best fly, but it was by no means my worst. My freestyle on the other hand was rotten. I didn't even come in third. The relay was a very close call… I think that the only difference in our timing was the time it took for the timers to react; the two teams couldn't have been more than a couple of milliseconds apart.
Ciao,
Florence
