Or Nike could focus on making a decent racing/technical suit that doesn't fall apart on the first wear. Anyone notice Kaitlin Sandeno's Nike suits, the letters are always falling off, I know Peirsol's rip frequently, I'd guess Hansen's do too. The Nike suits always look much more cheaply made then their Speedo counterpart.
And, I guarantee Sandeno, Peirsol, Hansen, Lezak, et al are all wearing brand new suits for their big races ...
I LOVE Nike for appareal, excpet swim suits, and for shoes, but not ones to actually run in ...
I'm never trying those suckers (the goggles). I had enough goggle trouble before I settled on my speed sockets. Except for Nike apparel, I don't like Nike suits or running shoes. I've had runners tell me they suspect an association with stress fractures.
I got that Brendan Hansen flyer ad. What caught my eye (aside from Hansen ;) ) was all the clinics. Some even nearby. I think I threw it out though, so my day-dreaming about breaststroke camps will have to cease.
Had a funny breaststroke moment in practice today. Coach was giving us part of a set for the fast lane with 2 x (5 x 100s) descending on the 1:20 and 1:30. He said if anyone wanted to do breaststroke, we might want to shift lanes. We just looked at him like he was insane and did freestyle and backstroke.
