We have a few grudge races amongst forum regulars coming up at Colonies Zones. They are:
Muppet vs. Dave Barra: 200 fly
SwimStud vs. Muppet: 50 ***
Fortress vs. SwimmieAvsFan: 50 back
Here's the poll. Place your bets; no limits on voting. All races should be hotly contested. All commentary, advice and cheering accepted. If anyone else has another grudge race, pile on.
Julie, I sense a big Attagirl coming up...
At practice at GMU tonight I was quizzing Coach Cheryl about warming up in my fastskin vs. a regular suit and my big dilemma was that I wasn't sure if I would get bumped into the first heat of the 1650 or not and I definitely need time to get that tiny suit over my hips! I was seeded 9th as of April 10th and they do the heat/lane assignments after everyone has checked in tomorrow night. She said that she had gotten a scratch, but wasn't sure where they were seeded but that she'd email me if I moved up before showing up at the pool tomorrow night. Sure enough, I just got home and had an email from her and I'm now seeded 8th...so if #7 shows up then I'll be in the lane right next to #6 Dave Barra. Yikes!
Oh, and I wore my fastskin for the very first time tonight to try it out for a few minutes after practice and WHOA!!!! It was AWESOME! Everyone told me they were great (thanks FORT who finally pushed me over the edge to purchase it!!!) but I just had to experience it to believe it.
Hope to meet some of you tomorrow night for the 1000/1650 :)
