They are not particurally difficult - I had to check to be sure that I was looking at the men's times and not women's times - a 14:10.00 for the 800 - Yes!!!!

I'd love to go, but doubt I will. For one thing I'd never be able to get in any long course training before the meet. That isn't really a big deal. I've done long course meets before without having trained LC with good results. I think the biggest issue is I'd probably want to go for a couple weeks to make it worthwhile and my wife doesn't like to leave home for that long. I could always go solo, but I can't really imagine taking an antipodean vacation by myself!
