I'm Swimming 15 Miles for American Red Cross

Three saves in 30 minutes.

That is the highest number of saves I’ve faced in one rotation in my three years of lifeguarding. It’s happened to me an another guard, totaling two incidents of the sorts.

In my three summer seasons and one off season, I’ve made the personal decision to show up and teach swim lessons every chance I get with my only absence being because of a doctors appointment.

My swim journey started with a lifeguard teaching me before the pool we were in was opened to the public for the day, and I’m joining the 15 miles in June challaenge to help see to it that children have that same experience.
