During the last five months since Dane joined the Hilltop Aquatic Swim Team (HAST), he has really improved his swim strokes and speed. On January 31, he entered the Heart Attack swim meet at Provo High and we were excited to see how well he would swim this time (having been disqualified a couple of times in the past and hoping for some great gains in his race times). I was thrilled to see it was a smaller meet (those swim meets can be pretty long, it turns out!) and we loved that Grandpa Bar showed up to cheer on his favorite swimmer grandson! Dane was entered in the 50-yard freestyle (shaving over five seconds off his time from 1:05.39 to 1:00.36), the 50-yard backstroke (shaving off 3 seconds: 1:16.99 to 1:13.96), and blowing away his 50-yard breaststroke time (shaving off 13 seconds!!: 1:25.73 to 1:12). *Then we found out he got DQ for the breaststroke--BUMMER!* Still so proud of our handsome (and *speedy* fish!)
