Guess who swam 2 lanes down from me at my noon workout?!
Kristy Kowal, Maritza Correia, Maggie Bowen and Scott Tucker!!!!
I was awestruck. I could hardly swim for watching them. They were testing some new suits for Speedo. I just had to share this with people that understood my excitement!! These are some of the best swimmers in the US! Maybe some of their speed will be transported to me by osmosis!! :D

Old Dog....everytime I swim I get a lesson in humility.....TRUST ME!
My first nationals in Fort Lauderdale in 1995 gave me a PHD. in humility...I went 20:58 and the winner in my 45-49 age group went 17:29....then I watched the great Graham Johnston swim 19:30 at age 61...
I took me two more years to bust 20 minutes....and Jim Mc Conica (SP) was swimming LOW 17's in my age group. But, I realized that just being there was the win!
