Great swim-a-thon

Mac's swim-a-thon was last night.  It was a 12 hour event from 6 pm to 6 am.  His swim team had a "camp" so the kids were able to spend the night, it really was a great event.  There were 5 lanes and each child swam from 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on their level.  Mac was assigned a 5 am swim time.  We arrived just before 6 and after the kick off he and his buddies were off  to have fun.  They played...and played, ate, played more and barely got any sleep.  I got Mac up at 4:15 am for his swim, he was very tired.  He swam well, completed 65 laps (1625 yards) in 30 minutes.   The team had a big pancake breakfast after the swimathon, it was a fabulous event.  Mac received an award for swimming the most laps in his swim group as well as receiving the most donations for his group.  He kept saying what a great time he had!  It really was a fun event.....even with the lack of sleep! Mahalo to all the generous donors for his swimathon!!!!
