You could hang, I'm sure. Your 5:12 500 free converts to under 4:40 and that would seed you third in the 400 free.
I also noticed Karlyn Pipes-Nielsen is swimming for France. WTF?
Yeah, that's way worse than self-professed relay whore John Smith swimming for superteam Arizona at Nats. Deciding not to represent your country so you can have yet another relay world record to add to your already huge stockpile?! :shakeshead: She couldn't find fast people to swim with here?!?! I guess too many are at Nats instead ... I hope her individual times at Worlds aren't somehow eligible for listing under US Top Ten LC times since she's affiliated with another country. That would really suck. But I'm wondering if she's registered with USMS, they might still show up? Well, then she could be on both the European and USMS lists and do some real double dipping. Sorry to be cynical, but I've seen the professional masters swimmers tote up their rankings totals for swim clinics and whatnot ... I'm sure one of the Smiths will come along soon and explain how this is just dandy and advances the cause of increasing US masters participation ...
I enjoy swimming relays with the people I train with on my little local club team. Fortunately, superteam Arizona will not be able to catch my chick team in the 400 medley relay since it's not swum at Nats. :thhbbb:
As for the psych sheets, my age group appears to be quite a bit easier than 2006.
