I'm definitely not nit-picky, so I'll be good there :)
As for the flight, we are considering the 10pm flight out of LAX since we save some money flying out from there than if we went left from SNA. However, we are still researching some other flights since we have few other kinks to work out in the whole family trip. It's mildly complicated since this isn't just a swim meet trip, but of course in the end we'll go with what works best.
I appreciate all the help!
Since you will be in Mission Viejo you may want to consider flying out of San Diego. Check out your options from that airport.
I saw my orthopedist today.We decided that my shoulder would not be ready for speed work any time soon,so no Nats this year.Hopefully I'll be OK by the end of SCM this year.Next year I age up, so I don't want to not screw things up.I hope everyone there has a great time and great times.
sorry to hear that allen.
i too am out with a shoulder injury/surgery/rehab. i dont even see my doc again until july 25.
i look at the pool as my son plays in it. i'm just a pretty topping for the deck chair. :D
scm is a big if/maybe
'13 looks like a flush

:cry: I'm sorry to hear that, King Frog! Bruce and I will miss you and Seal Girl! Best wishes on a speedy recovery!
Lastly, are awards given after each event or at the end of each day? I'm not sure how that works. The two events I'm looking at for Sunday are technically back to back. Although those are sprints and I don't believe I have a good chance at getting an award, I'd like an idea of how much time I'd potentially have between each race.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
I went to Atlanta Nationals, which might end up being a larger meet but one where women and men are swimming at the same time and I did back-to-back-to-back events. You can do it!
Allen, good luck with the shoulder.

You didn't say anything about Mrs. Frog being injured ;)
She can swim in the meet while you cheer her on! :)
(I am sorry to hear about the shoulder. I hope you are ready for the SCM season.)

That is what my son said.She said she didn't want to go to the meet if I couldn't swim.
Is there any way to change my seed times on my registration? When I registered, I entered with long course times from 2012 long course meets and training, because I thought they would be accurate predictions for Nationals. But, physical problems have really taken a toll on my strength and swim times, this year; especially over the past couple of months.
Today, I had the rare opportunity to train long course and I was shocked at my practice race times! :afraid: My perceived effort vs. my actual times were quite discouraging. :sad: I would really like to change my seed times on the 400 IM, 200 fly, and 1500, if possible, so I don't hold up the meet! :blush:
Meanwhile, I will train as hard as my body allows to (hopefully!) drop my times!
