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.
At practice at GMU tonight I was quizzing Coach Cheryl about warming up in my fastskin vs. a regular suit
Julie.....Fastskins, Powerskins and all the other "race suits" of this type are awesome.....but a word of advice.....once you've tested them a few times DO NOT wear them in warm up.
These suits function at their best when starting a race "dry", in fact they can actually work against you if worn during a race after being wet for more than 15 minutes.....not to mention they are expensive and the less you use them the better (most will lose thee majority of their waterproof treatment after 5-6 meets).
Good luck!
