Swim-A-Thon



Billy and JJ participated in a swim a thon yesterday to earn money for their team to get new lane lines. They both won a prize for being the swimmer in their age group to swim the the most laps. Here they are with their coach and the prizes they picked out of the bunch.

Billy swam 75 and JJ 40...both well over their goal. Billy wanted to do a mile, which would have been 60 laps (their pool is meters) and JJ wanted to do 10 because that would be more than he has ever done in practice. But, in the spirit of things they kept going and going.....and we are all so proud of them. Maybe one day they can swim the English Channel together....I wonder if a set of brothers have ever done that before?
