Aquanauts Meet 08/09/2018

This was a big test for the younger swimmers who have not had the chance to swim 100 metre swims and quite a test given that there were in some instances not much recovery time between swims. That having been said I was well impressed by the attitude shown which resulted in the following medal haul:-

17 medals won
Thomas 2 bronze three silver
Elliot 4 silver 2 gold
Maggie 2 silver
Sammy 4 bronze

Several club records were also achieved at this Meet as follows :-

Kara – new records set for 100 breast and 200 IM and she also took the record for 100 free
Darcey – new record for 200 IM
Elliot took his own 200 IM
Alice – new record for 100 Fly
Thomas took his own 100 Fly
Sammy – new record for 100 back
Rachel – new records for 100 fly and 100 back
Ellie – new record for 100 free and took her own 50 back record

As you will know due to technical issues with the start system the morning session times were all manual and whilst we do not normally accept manual times for club records due to all swimmers in the same position we are relaxing the criteria but only as a one off.
