Milestone achieved, many more to achieve…………
5th ,6th & 7th July were the three days when my hard work, practising two times a day, 5 days per week finally paid off .I contested in the Calcutta District Swimming Championship. On the first day, I had two events. They were 200m Individual Medley and 50m Breaststroke. A bronze, and a silver were secured by me in these events respectively. Next day, I competed 200m breaststroke and 400m IM and won bronze in both of them. Then came the final day . On that day, I had a silver medal performance in the 100m Breaststroke. I had an amazing experience winning a total of 5 medals at the meet, a feat I had never achieved before. This experience will remain ever etched in my mind and will surely stimulate positive energy in me to achieve many more from this sports. Anyways the dream is yet to be fulfilled as I strongly wish to see myself standing on the podium of the Indian National Swimming Championship.
