First Day of the Grand Rapids Meet - Three more life time bests!

Back in to competition mode today with the first day of the Grand Rapids meet. It is a timed final meet, so there is only one session per day. Today we competed in the 400 IM and the 800 Free.

Congratulations to Harry Thorn, Tom Crabb and Max Halson who swam life time best's in the 400 IM. Lots more photos in right sidebar.

Congratulations Cara: New C.I. Record Holder

Caledonian Meet - FOUR POOL RECORDS FALL ON NIGHT 2!!

from Stingray Swimming Club Website.

"Results are now available for sessions 1 and 2 of the Caledonian Meet. On the second night of competition, four Lions Pool Records were broken, two by Lara Butler, one by visiting Aussie swimmer Cara Davidson and one by Caymanian Olympian Shaune Fraser.

Shaune and brother Brett started out the evening with an exhibition swim, in which Shaune smashed the Pool Record by more than 2 seconds, swimming the 50M Butterfly in 24.77 Seconds. Brett narrowly missed a Pool Record himself, swimming a 26.68 second 50M back, just short of the record of 26.61 held by Olympic gold medalist, Jeff Rouse of the USA.

Lara later took down the 13-14 girls 100free and 400IM records in times of 1:02.28 and 5:17.22. The fourth Lions Pool record of the night was in the senior 200back, Cara Davidson clocking in at 2:24.70 having flown in from Melbourne, Australia less than 24 hours prior, boy her arms were tired!"

"It is an amazing sight, seeing the calm waters along Seven Mile Beach being churned up by the progress of over 500 enthusiastic swimmers. From Olympic champions to first time swim participants, the annual Flowers Sea Swim has drawn amazing numbers of swimmers over the last 17 years, demonstrating time and time again that Cayman has a place among the top open water swimming destinations in the world. The event returns on 20 June and promises to be bigger and better than ever" Sunday Observer 14/06/09
