4:17.27 -- Trials cut for Janet

I pity future USMS women trying to break National Records (assuming Janet gets this swim approved for USMS), but she knocked off one Trials cut this morning in Austin in the 400. Way cool!

    Getting to 4:11 by June would be VERY aggressive. If any 40-year-old can do it, it's Janet..but even then, I say it takes a sub 4:10 to make the top 8 at Trials this year. It took 4:15 just to make the top 50 US women in 2011. Ervin, on the other hand...I'd put a modest bet on 2nd in the 50 at trials and an outside shot at a top-6 for the 4x100 relay. He was out quick in that respectable 100 tonight. And is pretty much as fast as in 2000.
