I’m always nervous because I know there will be many very talented swimmers and I need to have my best swim to be able to compete against them. After a little over an hour, my team and I arrived at our destination. I saw many familiar faces from other teams since we have been friends for many years from swimming club. We conversed and soon came warm-ups. We all did our thing and shortly after warm-ups, the meet began to commence. I was a part of the first relay, which is the 200 medley and we…

Individual Medley I was hesitant at first, scared for the humiliation of losing. But, the closer the event arrived the more relaxed I was. I stood on the block as everyone around me got silent, as their envious eyes questioned, who will it be. My days of practicing over and over were engraved in my cerebral cortex.The recorded robot like voice stated that we should get ready. I grabbed my already secure yellow cap that in bold blue stated my team name “Marlins”, making sure that it was…

Thanks to the Michael Phelps-Ryan Lochte rivalry, the 200 Individual Medley is one of the most watched competitive swimming events in the world (Park np). This race combines all four strokes and tests both the skill and the guts of a competitor. The IM is comprised of speed and endurance. To fully understand the complexity of this race, personal experience is required. Although some will never attempt the IM, a complete description allows spectators a more in-depth comprehension as well.…

My favorite sporting event that was meaningful to me was this year on March 3. This was the state swimming and diving tournament. This year I was supposed to swim 4 events total which is more than I had had the previous two years. It was an absolutely phenomenal experience due to a couple of factors. Firstly, I was 9 overall in the 100 yard butterfly with a time of 53.1. This was a stellar time for me considering my best time before that was a 54. I had swum lights out and accomplished my goal…

affected both women’s and men’s times. Yet, the men have surpassed this time and have a limit that is nearly 20 seconds faster. The article “Assessing Time Trends in Sex Differences in Swimming & Running" explains, “…women seem to be limited to achieving speeds about 8% slower than men’s and that women’s improvement curve lags men’s by about a decade” (Wainer 14). That indeed women seem to be swimming at a slower rate than men. This could be due to the variations between sexes. Each sex seems to…

During Junior year I began to play football but two weeks into practices, I had to quit due to fracturing my back the year before in football. In November, I began swim practices. I was greatly excited for swim since I wasn’t able to swim the year before. By the end of swim season, I swam a 24.45 personal best for my fifty free, my favorite event. I was super excited and began to realize I could possibly obtain some scholarships for swimming at possibly a D2 college. In the fall and spring I…

Imagine that you are at the Olympic Games, swimming the 100-metre freestyle. It is your first time there and you are surrounded by the most prestigious swimmers in the world. Do you quit right away? No, this is what you have grown up on, what you were trained to do. In Hero by Perry Moore, it explores Metro City and it’s residents. In particular, Thom Green. In Metro City, superheroes are the talk of the town and are no longer pieces of the imagination. Thom is a sixteen-year-old boy who is…

swim we noticed that these swimmers are wearing different gear to adapt to their environment. Swimmers wear Speedos that will provide biomechanical positioning to suit their flexibility, breathing and power output. Speedo uses rough and smooth material on different parts of the body and the seams are made of high stretch thread to follow in the direction of water flow. Watching Simone Manuel’s race we also notice she is wearing a swimming cap. By wearing a swimming cap, swimmers will not be…

This is it, the part of my day that I half dread, half look forward to all day long. The point where I take a leap and let the stress of the school day fall behind me. The dread comes from knowing how hard my next two hours are going to be and calculating how many miles I’ll be swimming today. But there’s nothing in my life comparable to the joy I get when I slip into the chlorinated water of San Jose Pool every day. Six lanes, plus a diving well, hold all of my secrets, hopes, worries, and…
