It has been a very busy weekend for the McCarthy family. Whilst I was in Singapore for the half marathon (photos to follow), Donncha and the kids (together with my parents) were in KK for a swimming competition.
Only Jack and Iman were down to swim as Ayden was below the age requirement. Iman did well winning a medal for all her races bar the 50m backstroke. Jack in his first swimming competition was keen to compete but the waiting around broke him down resulting in a meltdown and refusal to take part in the relay. The back-up plan? Ayden who was raring to go took Jack's place and got his well deserved bronze medal. Thankfully this spurred Jack on and he returned back in the pool the next day and eventually won a bronze too.
Overall a great experience for the kids and adults and especially as the JIS team did particularly well coming second overall.
