OK, now that Spring Nationals are over for 2011 (sounds like the hosts did a FANTASTIC job!!!!!), it's time to turn our attention (or at least mine) to Greensboro, NC.
Who is going? Who wants to grudge? I will be there ready to rock and roll in the 50,100,200 Free, 50,100 Fly and some random 6th event that I'm not sure of right now.
I'll be aging out of the dreaded 40-44 into the easier and much less competitive 45-49...........oh wait.......craaaaaaaaaaap.
Look forward to seeing all of you there!!!!
Has the widths vs bulk heads question been answered somewhere yet?
To expand upon my earlier post...
They can run widths (two 10 lane courses) or bulkheads (two 8 lane courses). That decision won't be made until after the entry deadline. If the meet is small, I'm sure we'll run bulkheads (wider lanes). Otherwise we'll run widths.
...the entry deadline will be March 23. Seeding decisions are expected to be made by April 13. Seeding decisions will include which courses will be used.

I was at a meet this past weekend and hear they will be running two 11 lane courses at Greensboro. Is that true?
That is partially correct. I'll put more info out soon. But FYI the full meet announcement which will outline all facets of the meet and the entry form will come out in the January/February issue of SWIMMER magazine. I understand the issue is at the printer now being prepped for an on time delivery (first week in January). Except of course for AZTIMM. His won't arrive until after Nationals is over.

Comedy gold right there!
Burn.
Just keep in mind that for every lane you add you increase the bellyaching and whining by the sprinters as the time line gets reduced.
Um, what is this.
I subscribed. I know it won't have any bellyaching and whining, but I expect some comedy gold. Or else Little Devil has to take back the "Geek is smart" comment.
Oh, and obviously 8 lanes is better to avoid bare walls. :-)
