I saw Dara Torres swim at South Sectional this past weekend in Ft. Lauderdale and I thought I should report.

It was very interesting to watch her swim. First, she swims BIG. What that heck does that mean? Well, you just have to watch her. She swims relaxed with a very long stroke. Since she is so tall and broad of shoulder she is impressive to watch swim
She swam her 50 breathing every third. That was very interesting since so many (including myself) will strive to minimize breathing in the 50. This is a testiment to how balanced her stroke is.
Looks like you didn't do too shabby for what I assume was an unshaved meet, Mike. Even if it wasn't, it's still impressive.
Ryan Lochte went 1:02.59 in the 100 *** ... unshaved. Yikes. I think Phelps' best 100 *** is 1:03.
Ryan's really getting that breaststroke stronger. That's the only way he can take down Phelps in the 200 IM.
