I just saw the 2007 Check-off challenge on the home page. What a GREAT shirt! I've considered doing this every year and always chickened out. I'm NOT a distance swimmer and the thought of a 1650 scares me to death! I would like to challenge myself to try some new events this year. (maybe leave off the 200 Fly-bad shoulders!) I always swim the sprints and the 200 IM and free. I'd like to challenge my fellow Masters to join this challenge with me.....anybody?
BUMP! :)
Has anyone received their "Tour de Pool" shirts yet?
Beth, I haven't signed up for it, but I have seen it modeled on a fellow poster in the Chicago area. To protect the innocent, she modeled it quite nicely!
:wiggle:
It is a pretty cool-looking shirt and having seen it definetely made me want to sign up just to get the shirt!
Thanks.
Unfortunatly I signed up for some silly teaching certification test months ago, and it falls on the 14th...so I can not go...although I have not heard from the test which I was told I would, so I will check on that tomorrow, and if I am actually not signed up...maybe just maybe I will be (that is if it isn't too late to sign up?)
Cool, I am from Pine Bush--which is down an hour and a half south of the capital region, but I have my own apartment here in Albany year round for school and such.
I got my shirt today!! I promtly checked off all 6 events I have competed in so far this year, 50 and 200 ***, 500 free, 100, 200 and 400 IM. I am looking forward to checking off more :)

Our shirts just showed up in the mail today!!! They are very cool!
What kind of marker are folks using for the 'check-offs'? I was going to use a Sharpie. Good idea?
Oh and I like how they divided up the events into Sprint Stages, Time Trials, and Mountain Stages (2fly, 4IM, and 1000 and mile). Right now my Mountain Stages has no checks!!!
