Gold medal

Today, while having our induction for lifeguarding we had to take a swim test.
there were three levels of passing. (if you fail, you have to take swimming lessons for a whole semester): bronze, silver, or gold.

your's truely got a gold medal.
This meant that I had to swim 100 m in 2.5 min, do some sculling, do a sumersault, tread water with one hand above our head for 3 mins, swim 800 m in under 25 mins (with at least three different strokes for 200 m each). and then pull ourselves out of the deepend.

So I am officailly a gold medalist!
