Stories of hope series - swimmers dreams #14 I once knew a boy named Kevin and I watched him grow And people would always say he was " mighty slow ". He didn't learn as fast as others and they would tease Him because he had no sisters or brothers. So without anyone to play or talk with, he would go Into his little world that he had created in his mind Where he would spend his time. But in school there was two things that he was good at He could swim like a fish and climb like a cat and no one Could beat him at any of that. One of the coaches saw this and called him to the side. Asking him ‘ how would you like to join our swim team? Man! What a surprise! He joined the swim team and would swim every day, and now Other kids would talk to him and ask him to play. He would show others how to jump high and climb like a cat Till they became very good at that. The coach always watched him and thought that he could Put it to use, and how he would show his teammates how To get more bounce on the diving boards and to do their Twists and turns in the air, and against his school none could compare. Since he was the fastest swimmer on the team he asked the coach If he could try something different with his teammates breathing techniques. He noticed that when they was about to dive in the pool they would take A short breath of air then dive. But by filling your lungs completely it would mean less times coming up To breathe and saves valuable seconds, and when they did come up It was to fill their lungs completely. The coach took five volunteers and with his stop watch timed each one at their normal pace. Then he did it again with what Kevin said about larger intakes of air. And their times were cut 10 to 20 seconds. The team became so successful they competed state wide They won so many trophies that another wall they had to find. Because of Faith, Love and Hope - multiple swimmers dreams came true And it will "only start if you want it to ".
