Deltona Swim Meet!

Yes! Donovan beat all his times! His first race was a 50 Free (then 30.60) now 29.04! Second race was 100 Breast (had never done this race before) now 1:25.91. Third race was 100 back(then 1:19.53) now 1:18.48! Final and last race was 100 fly (then 1:47.81) now 1:44.11! We were so happy! After the meet Donovan rode his bike home and I stayed a little longer and was able to talk to his coach. I went up to her and before I could share my excitement with her she proceeded to tell me how upset she was that Donovan did not push himself. She feels as if he does not know the difference between practice swim and race swim pacing. So she told me that she thinks she must have worked him too hard at practice this last week and to let him have Monday off! Well, when I got home and told Donovan that coach has given him the day off, he was so mad! He was saying" How dare she give me a day off without asking me if I want one or not! I can't believe that she would come to you and not me! Wow! I guess his coach knows how to push someones buttons! Over all it was a great meet and we could not be prouder to see him excel!
