SAISA Day 2

Dear TAISM Swim Fans,

Today was the second day of our SAISA Swim Competition in Nepal and it was another exciting, busy and FAST day at the Lincoln pool for our TAISM Eagles. In the morning session, we swam a total of 53 personal best swim times and in the afternoon finals heats we added another 18 personal best swims for Day 2’s total of 71 personal bests. Lots of ribbons and medals will be on their way back with us to Muscat!

There were many exciting races and in particular TAISM swimmers smashed the following school records and a few SAISA records as well.
