I don't know yet! I've only swum it once! :rofl: I'm still in the "trying" phase. You'll have to ask the other FAF Sista. The 100 free is her fav event, as you know.
It just wasn't as bad as I thought. (But I did loaf the second length and was scolded for it.) I don't know if I'll get a chance to have a "physically and mentally abusive relationship" with it. I probably won't even get a chance to swim it in SCM because of the paucity of meets anyway.
You don't need to swim that one. You're much more diverse. Go swim that 400 IM again. :thhbbb:
You went that fast a time in your 100 and loafed the second lap.
First, you and I are the same. I 2 beat kick the second lap and come to think of it, the first and third one too. :rofl:
Second, can't wait to see when you don't loaf a lap in the 100!
400 IM - the 200 kicks my butt as it is.
And as Natalie Coughlin once said in her book, "The 100 Free is where the action is at!" Amen to that!!
Allen made me do the 2:50.48 LCM. It was his fault.
Jim, I hope you've been reading the breaststroke turn thread because obviously your turns stink if you swim the same time short course and long course! ;)
Does anyone know if FINA has Top Ten Recogntion Patches/Certificates like USMS does ?
they have patches. the link on FINA's site is www.fina.org/.../index.php. you just have to scroll down to the bottom to find out how to order them. i've already emailed them about ordering a few for my teammates who made the list, and i've heard back that they should be sending them soon (and it's only been about 4 or 5 days since i originally emailed).
hope that helps!
