SESSION 4!!

After a fabulous lunch the team got their daily naps in! As much as we all try to study during this time we really take advantage of the napping time that most of us miss out during a normal school week!  Shout out to Rob Taylor for picking up the PSAC shirts today in between sessions! We will be sporting them all day tomorrow!

The Haven Swimmers headed back to the pool for session number 4.  As always there was some more procrastination before warming up, especially since their was now sweetish fish on the deck.  We obviously could not resist eating those before swimming tonight. 

The two events that were on the table tonight were the 200 Freestyle relay and the 400 Medley relay.  After the girls got their suits on Carley Nitchie, Kaitlyn Druby, Kayla Schnars, and Kristen Capretti set eyes on the pool for the first race of the evening!  The girls all had very strong swims and finished out with a 1:40.24 and an 11th place finish!

The 400 Medley relay consisted of Kayla Schnars, Kaitlyn Druby, Kristin Taylor, and Danielle Parowski.  The girls dropped over 4 seconds swimming a 4:02.88!! This gave them a 9th place finish overall!  The relay consisted of lifetime and season best splits! Kayla swam blistering fast and went a 59.55 in the backstroke while Kaitlyn swam a amazing 1:09.11 in the breaststroke.  Kristin had a gutsy race  swimming the fly leg and clocked in 1:00.38 and Danielle sprinted to swim a 53.84 in the free.  It is crazy to think that this was Kaitlyn's LAST official race of her swimming career! Congratulations!!

After the girls got a longish cool down they headed back to the hotel to eat their dinners from "Cheddars" (cheddar a) restaurant!  It is true that when we are so hungry we eat unbelievably fast that we don't know we are so full till we stand up! Probably not the smartest thing but at least we get our bellies full!!

As the night is winding down we are all looking for some strong and FAST swims tomorrow!! The events in the morning include the 500 freestyle, 100 backstroke, 100 breaststroke, and 200 butterfly!!
