If someone asked you to say how many laps you could swim in 90 minutes, would you know how to answer that? Buddy could tell you. He had a swim-a-thon to help raise money for his swim team (thanks to all who helped by donating, we appreciate it). The kids were given the challenge to swim as many laps as they could within 90 minutes. Buddy thought he would be able to swim 70 laps, which in the pool he swims in equals one mile.
Well, Buddy blew us away with swimming not only 70 laps, but
138 laps in those 90 minutes. That is almost two whole miles!!! He only stopped a total of four times to take a drink and that is only because Dad stuck a water bottle in Buddy's face. We are so impressed with his determination and stamina.
