OK, I don't have a life...I am already stoked about swimming in the IUPUI pool next August. I think I am one of the few (former) midwesterners who has not swum in that facility. Have always wanted to go to Nationals there but something always came up.
Not in 2009!!!
A bunch of us from Arizona are already planning on going. Yes, even Jeff (Short Course) Commings is going to be a part of this meet! It should be a fun and fast event. Digging the all relay day on Saturday, good job Mel and Kris!
Anybody else stoked?
Um, 50 free and 50 back are not back to back, Dana. (My other good event separates them.) I'm irritated that all 3 are back to back on the last day. I know you probably get enough rest at Nats if you have two. I have the same problem at other big meets as well, however, where you do NOT get enough rest.
If they're just rotating the same 3 orders of events, maybe they should think about changing the 3 possibilities every once in awhile.
Boo hoo on the 1500. 50 free is very often the last event of a meet too. And 50 back (my best event) is at the very end here (and was in Austin and will be in Clovis too --- WTF, 3 national meets in a row?!). They're not great events to have last either when you're dead tired. Sprinting is exhausting too.
Just not inspired to drop mega dollars on that.
