So, she has definitely got/gotten/become faster! After I finished walking with a mate, I popped into the bleachers to read/watch the last half hour of practice. By this point, they had swum thousands of yards. They were doing an interval set (where they have a specific distance to swim within a specific time and anything left over is their rest period before they start the next one...). They finished with a 100 free on the 1:15. She came in at 1:06. That's equal to her personal best swimming the 100 in a meet (i.e. off the blocks, not exhausted after two hours of hard practice....)

Go Swimmer Girl!
