Utah Summer Games Swim Meet

The summer games swim meet is a fun event to attend.  Ryder is excited to see how much time he can shave off each event.  I was excited to watch him try.  Thursday @ 1:00 the buzzer sounded and the kids were ready to compete.

Here we go...

They no longer have medal ceremonies.
This now makes a good photo op.

Ryder worked so hard and accomplished his goals.  It was fun to officiate and interact with the participants.

Here are his stats:

 Event #6 Boys 11-12 200 LC Freestyle:  3.03.81 / 3rd Place / Bronze Medal

 Event #30 Boys 11-12 200 LC IM:  3.34.28 / 4th Place

 Event #107 Boys 11-12 400 LC Freestyle: 6.22.57 / 2nd Place /  Silver Medal

 Event #124 Boys 11-12 100 LC Breaststroke:  1.58.69 / 4th Place

His times are really starting to drop and he is eager to keep working.  However, they aren't good enough to make it to state this year.  The coaches tell him that if he continues to work hard he will make it there.
