Anyone up for a beer sometime during the Rutgers meet? We did this last summer in Cleveland, and it was great to meet face-to-face with folks I only knew from their forum posts.
I signed up today, at nearly the very last moment, despite not being in the greatest swimming shape. Nothing like a 50 m pool to make winter's short course meets seem like a dip in the baby pool.
One other note: I got an assignment to write about Masters swimming for Best Life magazine, a kind of older brother to Men's Health. If anyone out there knows of inspirational swimmers (males only--sorry, this is a men's magazine) that might be at the meet and good to write mini-profiles about, please let me know. I remember reading a great story about Paul Trevisan in the Philly Inquirer. From practically unable to walk due to a bad back--to world record holder. Anyone know if Paul is coming? Any other great guy comeback stories in the 50+ age groups?

I entered:
1.) Thursday's 800 free,
2.) Friday's 200 free,
and
3.) Saturday's 100 free.
If I manage to come, then Wednesday, Thurday, Friday and Saturday, we will have fun.
So, what were these F.I.N.A. meter rankings of you, that you were so giddy about last year at age 49 (or 50 by F.I.N.A.) after the 2002 Long Course Nationals were finished, and didn't want to share on this board because they were unofficial yet?
