I attempted the impossible...yes for a brief moment in time I pretended that I had fast twitch muscles and did a 50 fr and a 50 BACK :doh: While I was less than thrilled with the idea I decided that every soo often you have to at least TRY new events...my last official SCM 50 free was 1999 and I even managed a best time on my 50bk.... Of course there was the standby 200breast and 1500 free to make up for any brusing of the ego as a result of the meager attempts to sprint.
I have no idea how you sprint studs do it...I was the last off the block and as for breathing WELLL...let's just say there was A LOT...and my poor legs had no idea what the :censor: I was doing trying to kick.
STILL it was pretty fun..I was pleased that I am at least trying new events even though I am a distance/*** person. How bout you guys? Anyone stepped "out of the box ?" I am sure that the people at the meet got a good giggle but for the most part it was pretty fun.
:cheerleader: Swimshark...you are definately one of my heros...I don't know that I will ever be able to do a 200 fly...as for the 400 IM...it is a rather addicting event isn't it.
FMIF- Open water is by far and away IMHO a much harder kettle of:fish2: because I myself need that black line to help keep me going in the same direction...and the 200 free is a rather challenging event because it to me is not distance but it isn't a sprint...so that is an event that I haven't really tried yet so way to go:D
