So Patrick...should we gridge this, or is it not even worth the time needed to do the computations??
I'm thinking something like a 2 second per 100 handicap in my favor (or is that not enough????) :bolt:
If it reaches 4, SELL!
Hey TG...there's still time to get entered into the meet. I'll give you 2 seconds per 100 if you show up! :angel: But you have to swim the distance triple on Sunday!

At prices like that, those noodles will sell out quick!
Any psych sheet/heat sheet available yet? :)Just posted today -- www.teamunify.com/EventShow.jsp. Looks like we've got ourselves a nice lactate workout on our hands.
... and a sandbagger in between us on that 50 fly!

Michelle Chow's a few lanes over too! :)
For not a very large meet, there's a LOT of fast people in most of the events, among all ages. That's something I'm not used to with my meets up here. This should be fun!! :applaud:
I'm seeded with all my best times SCM, and the 800 is the one I think I'll blow away the most. The 200 Free, I'm going to try to grab Sean's ankle and hold on for the ride!
HEY!! I just noticed something... Shauna Nelson F23 from MAC-AZ is doing the deadly 3 races on Sunday, and also the 200 Free and 200 Back!
How's that make you feel Patrick??? Two of us doing the deadly 3 distance events PLUS two other events!! hehe :bolt:
