Last Friday we had swimming sports. I entered 1 length breath stroke, 1 length freestyle and 2 lengths of backstroke. My first race was two lengths backstroke. I was so scared before I started the race. As soon as the teacher signalled for the race to start I went as hard as I possibly could straight away. I was up against a boy called Jonathon who does lots of swimming so he was really good. When I started the second length I was really tired because I went hard out when I did the first length. I ended up coming second, I had wanted to come first but at least I got silver. After a bit of waiting it was one length breath stroke I was more confident with this because I had practiced breath stroke. Once again as soon as the race started a went as hard as I could. By the time the race had finished I realised I had come fourth which I wasn't very happy with because I wanted to at least came third.
After a while of waiting it was time for the one length freestyle. It wasn't suprising that I was scared before the race. When the race first started I was quite a bit behind because I had a bad start. But I kept on going hard. I ended up coming 3rd out of 6 people which I was pretty happy with.
At the end of the day I had a great time and I look forward to the next swimming sports.
