Okay, My turn to brag a little bit, if I may... ;)
I had a great meet yesterday.
Shaved 5 seconds off my 200 free. Iafter I got done almost fainting from the effort, I almost fainted again from surprize when I saw my time. It's the time I didn't think I could do (yet).
Then I dropped 2 secoinds in my 100 free, and a second in my 50 free.
Finally for 100 free I dropped into teens. I'm around 1:18-ish now.
Then my coach says, today at practice... Yeah, you're doing really well, if you stick with it for couple of years, you'll turn into a major contender.
:eek: i'll stick with it allright, but a major contender... ugh! We'll see.
Did I mention I have the best coach? ;)

CONGRATULATIONS! I agree with Breastroker ... it takes time ... but patience and hard work wins out every time, doesn't it? Similar thing happened to me last summer doing two 800 freestyle events within 1-1/2 months of each other. Fainting is permitted as well as tooting your own horn. Besides, if you don't, no one else will do it for you. :D
