Message: [QUOTE="Fishy, post: 3013099, member: 38"] I promise that i never take any offense - no apologies are ever necessary. The kid is perfectly healthy....she’s just not very tall. (Only reason they bothered to try to figure out how tall she would be...my wife realized when the kid was seven or eight that we never had to buy her bigger shoes. I mean for years she wore the same size sneakers. Turns out, she was just destined to be small.) She’s a good gymnast, but loves the pool. It’s not ideal, but she compensates for it. Very strong, very fast hands and her flip turns are textbook - she’s an all-conference swimmer as a freshman and a state-cut candidate in the free and backstroke events. Her stature really starts to become an issue in the longer races and also in the breastroke. She just doesn’t push enough water in the breastroke events. [/QUOTE]
