There seem to be a lot of sad injury reports out there. Is anyone well enough to come to Colonies Zones? I would ask the same question about Nationals, but it might be too early? I was just bummed to read that both Smiths are injured, Born2Fly is injured, Allen is kicking only, my twin is injured and on the comeback trail, there are a lot of sore shoulders, and Julie and Rich have back problems. To name just a few. Will anyone be healthy (besides my secret nemesis that is)? Who's coming and what events are you swimming?
P.S. Dave: The defective sauna in the deep pool is being replaced by a sauna near the warm down/rec pool. So you can always "warm up" certain body parts there if you choose. ;)
200 ***? Isn't that right after the 200 back?
I'm skipping the 200 back at Albatross. I would rather just stick to swimming it at Zones only. At Albatross, I'm in the 200 IM, 200 Free, 200 *** and 400 IM.
I'm thinking of bagging backstroke altogether, although it's all I swam at Albatross last year ...
Ok, so I just went and looked up your time from the 100 back last year since we both swam it at Albatross open and we finished .06 apart. I remember my heat being very close, so I went and dug out my heat sheet (I keep them in a binder but am really not sure why I don't just throw them away after the meet) and we were in the lanes right next to each other. I remember that being an exciting race, definitely made me swim fast! You ARE a sprinter, I remember you going out WAY fast in that event and thinking now way am I going to catch her on the second 50. We could have a fun little rivalry in the 100 back :)
