Okay... I know, this is perhaps a little bit of a tongue in cheek question... So often I hear people complaining about not enough 'distance' swims in zone and national meets, or meets in general. Just having been involved in organizing my firat more serious swim meet I have to ask... Almost noone, or very few people want to swim the 200 fly, or 200 Brast or 200 back? Is that not 'distance enough?' I just got a zone meet medal in 200 back, not because I'm fast, but because noone wants to swim it. How about some real endurance testing events like 400 or 800 Fly? 800 IM? How about a postal 800 IM? Or 30 minute stroke check off challenge? One for each stroke, rather than just freestyle? Okay, now that I tossed this out there, I think I'm gonna duck and run. ;)

After we checked out of the resort, my wife asked if we could go to "Downtown Disney". I made the mistake of saying OK. I don't know...shopping in Mickey land?! That's heaven for me!
