We had to wear competition suits instead of our regular suits that we usually wear for dual meets earlier in the season. These suits are pretty expensive and usually wear out pretty quickly, so most swimmers use their newer suits for the most important meets of the season. I didn&#8217;t want to use my newest suit, so I grabbed one from the team locker room &#8211; when swimmers on our team graduate and know they&#8217;re not going to continue swimming, they usually leave their racing suits for other swimmers to use.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The suit was an old Speedo model, solid black except for the straps and one of the legs, which were bright pink. The second I saw it, I knew exactly what kind of suit it was. It was the suit I had dreamed of wearing when I first fel in love with competitive swimming; the suit that my idols like Mireia Belmonte wore; and the suit that the older girls on my club team wore to meets that I hoped one day I would get a chance to compete in.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Before the meet, I showed the suit to my coach and said, &#8220;if I could call my 12-year-old self right now and show her that I&#8217;m racing in the USA and I&#8217;m wearing this suit, she would be so excited that she probably wouldn&#8217;t sleep for a week.&#8221;<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">It\u2019s definitely been a long journey to get to where I am today, on a <\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">swimming scholarship<\/span> <span data-contrast=\"auto\">in the U.S<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">., studying and competing for Northern Arizona University (NAU).\u00a0 Let me tell you how it all happened.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ca270e9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"ca270e9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"534\" src=\"https:\/\/keystonesports.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Helena-Robla-1.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-71319\" alt=\"young helena robla sitting in a chair\" srcset=\"https:\/\/keystonesports.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Helena-Robla-1.webp 1024w, https:\/\/keystonesports.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Helena-Robla-1-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/keystonesports.cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Helena-Robla-1-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c1464b1 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"c1464b1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Turning Swimming Lessons Into Competitions and a Passion<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a4657a8 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a4657a8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">I started swimming when I was only one year old and kept doing swimming lessons till I was seven.

It took a while to convince my mom, but she ended up realizing how much I wanted to do this and how great of an opportunity it was. I started working with Keystone Sports Spain and one of their sports consultants, Diego. I began my recruiting process the summer before my last year of high school.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">It was a bit daunting at first, but Diego helped me create a profile to send out to college coaches, a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/keystonesports-cn.raketforskn.ing\/how-to-make-a-highlight-video\/\"><span data-contrast=\"auto\">highlight video<\/span><\/a><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> with some of my races, and helped me draft emails I could send to introduce myself to the coaches who showed interest in me.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">As he sent out my profile, coaches started to reach out.

The test is split up into a math section and a reading and writing one. I was a little bit nervous before this exam because I had never taken a similar test.
