26th March Thursday

Today we decided to go for a swim but then Dad had a message to say their school is closed because of Covid-19.

So we swam at Cooper's Beach instead of the pool. I swam to the first buoy then paddled to the first buoy and did a run x3. My time was 25.00 minutes.

It was fun.  My brother and dad practised kicks while I did this.

25th March Wednesday

Today  I did speed training at the pool.

All of my lengths were timed . I had a time limit to complete each length.

Butterfly :- time limit  was 1 min 40 ( 2 lengths)

Freestyle :- time limit was 1  min 20 ( 2 length )

Breast Stroke :- time limit 1 min  40 (2 length)

Back Stoke :- time limit 1 min 20    ( 2 length)

Then I did 1 freestyle, 1 back stroke and 1 breast stroke. I swam my fastest freestyle length at 21.77 seconds. (22m pool)

 We thought it would be fun to do 19 lengths because of   COVID-19.
