Atlanta - North Division Meet #2 and South Division Meet #1

A Moment of Zen

Swimming really is a beautiful thing. It’s such a meaningful part of our lives and has led to many friends, new and old. In particular I am thankful for the clarity swimming brings me, but more importantly, for the questions it inspires me to ask that I had never before considered. For instance, if someone is pregnant, wouldn’t every race they swim be a Multi-Generational relay?

Anyways, Grown-Up Swimming was back in action and pulling double duty (haha I said duty), both the North and South divisions had meets in Atlanta on July 8th.

South Division

The South division managed to avoid the bad weather further north and swam all of the events and had a blast while doing it. Here are the individual results - but don’t forget there is no “i” in team

Team Results

(remember these points are VERY real and VERY not made up)

  1. Garden Hills - 2170

  2. Maria’s Minions - 1573

  3. Chastain Park - 1153.5

  4. Winding Vista - 1084.5

  5. Glenwood Park - 854

Congratulations to Garden Hills for their victory, and of course thanks for being wonderful hosts. Don’t underestimate home pool advantage (and email Brian if you want your team to host a meet next season so you can get that advantage too!)

North Division

The north didn’t get as lucky as the South did with the weather on Friday, but we had a blast even though we didn’t get past the Individua Medley. You can see the results here
