The first lesson of the swim team season: no matter how much Jesse begs, I shouldn’t have bought the breakfast burrito.

I also completely whiffed video on his 25 freestyle.

Shivering on the pool deck before the 25-yard freestyle.

He found out the hard way that you start on the buzzer, not the get-ready whistle. He came in third of six at 48:53.

I did get a backstroke video:

Results TK. I’m betting on a DQ.

The night before, we had the swim team kickoff pizza part and water gun fight, where he ran wild until almost 9. Also, he got his “Big Fin” buddy assignment. (Hopefully Jesse will remember to cheer for him next time!)
