'Beep' The buzzer sounded and I was off, swimming to my hearts content! It was the 25 meter backstroke and I would be swimming butterfly later on during the meet. I had always dreamed of making it to this point and here I was, swimming at Beachwood. Kicking. Swimming. I felt like I was in a dream. Weightless. I glided across the water until I saw the flags. One I counted, two, three, four, five, six, seven. At the last stroke I reached for the wall since it was not there I kept kicking until I touched it. I hopped out of the water and looked up at the score board.
I don't know what my time was but whatever it was I am happy because I climed my own Everest and kept believing in myself and I had fun. That is what games are all about!:)
