I hate to admit it, but I think I am slowly enjoying the distance events more and more. This past weekend I swam in a USS meet against the kiddos. I swam the 1650 3 weeks ago in a masters meet for the first time this year and did a 17:53. Yesterday in the USS meet i swam a 17:30. I know I can go much faster, I got bored during the middle 500 and my splits show it, however my last 500 was same as first :-) I also did the 500 free, 4:56.40 a lifetime best at 40 yrs old :-) In the 200 fly I did a 1:58.02. In the sprint events I did not do as well as I wanted, 100free 50.10 and 100 fly was a 54.0 Not sure whether to give up on the 100s and start focusing on the distance events but for Worlds I think distance is what I will concentrate on. I just don't have that fast twitch muscle fiber anymore I guess.
