Me and Swimming

I have been a Special Olympics swimmer sense I was eight or ten. I went to the Special Olympics World Games in 1999 in North Carolina. The best thing I remember is Arnold Schwarzenegger going through the whole pool and shaking every athlete's hand. It was a blast.

I also participate in bowling and Long Distance Walking & Running.

I am also in Masters Swimming. Which is for those that are 18 and over.

I have also tried out for the 1996 and 2000 Paralympic.

I watch swimming on TV every chance I get. I have a TIVO so it record's it for me.
