Your daughter swims and has a talent f...I love it! Your daughter swims and has a talent for softball too! Enjoyed those pics as well. Playing other sports will help her with her swimming. OK, so I've got to brag now on mine - she WON! 1st place overall for all female swimmers in the 5K swim, Biscayne Bay, Miami. We were so excited! She actually thought she placed 2nd because when she looked at the times, she thought another girl was 5 minutes ahead of her. This is the first year they ran two heats, breaking them up 11-17 and 18 and over, so we didn't know "who" won the race until the end. Kind of bad, because my daughter likes to pace herself and if someone is ahead of her, then she goes after them, that is if they're not too fast - LOL! Anyway, when the announcements came and they were called up to the podium, the girl she thought placed first was actually the 3rd place girl. Then they called her name for 1st and she was so excited! And, of course, so was I!!! This is the second time she has won the event and she loves to swim there. Oh, and by the way, her time was 1:07.?? - yep, that's one hour, 7 minutes and I forget the seconds and she beat her previous time by 2 minutes. It was a beautiful day, but the wind was blowing so hard. Water was choppy and she said it was hard coming back on that final leg. <br /><br />She's doing another open water swim next month in Ft. Myers, which is about 45 minutes north of us. Last year she didn't do well, but I think she is looking forward to going back and redeeming herself on this one!<br /><br />Enjoy your summer!Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15971675930192275190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4503200786618224208.post-46765116978862182452009-04-28T01:14:00.000-08:002009-04-28T01:14:00.000-08:00CD looks like a cool coffee house and lots of fun....CD looks like a cool coffee house and lots of fun.
