World Trials

Ok, world trials start tomorrow ... yeah! I am so excited, probably because I am going... anyway ... There are going to be some tough races. I think the 200 back is going to be an amazing race. I'm ready to call in sick to work and go back just for that race. Peirsol, Phelps, and Lochte. It's going to be amazing. Other races I think will be great ... Phelps and Crocker will go at it agian in the 100fly. The 50 free for the women has an amazing field. Kaitlin Sandeno is entered in seven events right now, do you think she'll swim all seven? It kind of sounds like she might not, I wonder what she will swim and what she'll drop. I'd love to see her take that schedule on and show the world that you girls can do it, too! Phelps is in seven also (not really surprising) - dropped the 200 fly though. I'm a little disappointed that Peirsol is only swimming his two backstroke events, I've heard he's a good mid-distance and distance freestyler so I wasn hoping he'd try that out. I was hoping Coughlin would do more events too (she's signed up for the 100 free, 200 free, 100 fly, and 100 back). I think she'd be a great challenge to Hoff and Beard in the 200 IM. It'll also be great to see who emerges in the 50 free for the men, as Hall is retired and I didn't see Lezak's name on the psyche sheets. I'm also ready to see if Kate Ziegler who I've heard a lot about will step up at this meet and become the next great american female distance swimmer. Can't wait till they get going tomorrow. Any bets on the Peirsol/Phelps/Lochte showdown? What about the Locthe/Phelps showdown in general?
