Seeing as Nationals are fast approaching (eek!), I thought I'd post this now to give time for debate, planning, and change to make sure we can see some action. ;)
Here's what I was thinking:
There's a Red Robin (though there are plenty of other choices also) fairly close to the pool (by the mall...about 5 milesish..maybe). I would LOVE to meet everybody from these forums so I was thinking Friday or Saturday night we should have a little dinner and drinks soiree. The formally organized USMS social is Saturday night.
So...that's my thought. Let's hash out some details and make it happen!!
:drink: :groovy: :woot:
Hi Sis!
I have had to sadly accept that I will not make it to Nationals this year! :shakeshead: I swam yesterday and realized how VERY OUT OF SHAPE I am! I only swam 2600...and most with fins...and I was wiped out last night. Plus the moula for a flight to Washington is out of the question. I have one child in college and have to buy a car soon for my 15...soon to be 16...year old! I hope I can go to long course Nationals this summer. I definitely plan on going to short course next year!! I'll be with you in spirit though!
I'm not real sure I'm in much better shape than you twin ... That's why no reservations yet. Still pretty fin addicted. Practice times aren't too bad, but I'm a little achey breaky. :frustrated: Off to ART in a minute.
I can't go to LC Nats, so I can't meet you there either. :( It's during my daughter's eastern zones meet this summer. She missed it last year to go to Worlds with me, so now it's my turn to miss.
Washington is far, far away. (And Florida ain't that close to DC, Kristilynn!)
Aren't kids expensive? I just had to purchase a new fastskin, goggles, workout suit, crocs, etc. At least she's almost my size now ... I would say "quit growing," but I'm hoping she won't be a short sprinter like me.
