https://community.usms.org/swimming/f/general/2205/1979-nationals---memory-laneIn light of us hosting the &#39;05 Nationals, I think a question is in order: Has anyone posting here swam at the 1979 Nationals, the last ones that were held at Mission Viejo Nadadores Pool? Do you know someone who did, or their story?

I went to winter nationals at Belmont Plaza. I think Summer nationals were in Philadelphia but I wouldn&#39;t swear by that.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/13359?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 30 Mar 2004 06:57:44 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:a13d4712-6f48-43b3-9187-6d6c4cf5fea4Former Memberhey, a t least you got to nationals. That alone takes a lot of effort. Anyone else? I think there was a big meet at Mission in 1976 too.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/13333?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 26 Mar 2004 08:53:23 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:f1f78d41-110f-4be4-bee5-11aee51501f5Former MemberI swam there in 1977 nationals. Not masters though. I had the dubious honor of finishing dead last in the 100 back. Several guys were still trying to break 100 fly world record set by Spitz in 72. They didn&#39;t. Too long ago. I don&#39;t remember much else.<div style="clear:both;"></div>
