No worries; I plan on doing those same events anyway. Ever since I swam 8 individual events and two relays at an Auburn meet, in February, I proved to myself I can do it and still get a couple of personal best times. I'm signing up for the max. 10 events for the Dixie Zone Championships, including 400 IM, 200 fly, and 200 ***. I doubt I will get any PB's there, but I want to see how I do under those race conditions, anyway.
Note to Bobinator: I missed your previous comment about me being a "super-star swimmer". :lmao:Ha! Do a swimmer look-up and you will see just how far down the rankings I really am. :cane:
Well you're the 2nd best distance flyer I know!!
Elaine, I think Mission Viejo is proposing a unique 5 day meet program for next year, so don't count on the rule book order of events yet. It would be brought up for approval at convention in September.
I remember hearing that Mission Viejo would be set up so us 800/1500er could swim both events.
Funny story about one of the announcers in Atlanta. Let me first say that I think they really enhance the entire meet experience, especially when they draw attention to some of the great individual stories in the pool. Anyway during the men's 500 he begins commenting excitedly about one of our teammates who is apparently on his way to a PB while trying to hold off the swimmer in the next lane. So we're watching the race from the pool deck and looking at the scoreboard and saying, "Wait, what?" I mean, he's having a good swim, but it's as if we're looking at a different swimmer. As it turns out, the announcer was confused and was watching the wrong end of the pool.
Now that's just silly. You're starting to sound like an Elaineiak. :D
Thanks, Skip! I actually did a double-take on That Guy's post and thought, 'Hmmmm, maybe I'll try that on a HV day this week!'
thanks!
And, thank you, That Guy! :bighug:

Thanks! Yeah, I saw on the Butternuts web page that somebody swam a 5,000 yard fly! I'm happy with escaping my 2,000 fly without soreness or injury, so I won't be attempting that any time soon. :afraid: :bolt:
(I wonder when they update that page; the last Butternut posted was back in February...)

I think he's in the process of updating it right now' we've just been notified of our first international Butternut apparently.
The guy that did the 5K fly is the originator of the whole Butternut concept, and he is a bit of a nut.
