Anyone know how swimmers were chosen/ applied for the High Performance Camp? I remember seeing something about this several years ago and if I remember right there were a very limited amount of spaces and the selection was based on your times/ top 10 places.
Just curious. From the article it sounded like a great opportunity and a lot of fun.

Lefty,
Yes, that was my point. I have no idea what the actual costs were, but however you break it down, when you do, you see that what at first seems like a lot of money, then seems more reasonable given what all you get.
For me, there was just no question about it. I was going! Of course, we only have one car and it's 32 years old and we don't have a cell phone etc.
The camp was a priority for me and well worth the time and money.
I read your article on it and, like Ande, thought it sounded awesome. On the lactate acid test:
Did you swim 5 x 200's at descending speeds and if so, did they provide you an exact pace where you produce more lactate than you can clear?
