My first IM event in 19 years

For your comment. I have a few things that I have noticed from the video that I need to work on. I welcome any and all comments. I am in the lane at the top. And BTW, the guy in the blue cap who beat me is 18 years younger that me :thhbbb: www.youtube.com/watch Paul

  • I'm swimming the 50 free, 100 IM and 50 Fly at the Carol Chidester Memorial Swim Series at UMBC this Saturday so we'll see if I have improved my technique any. I hope so as I am going for our teams record in 40-44 50 Fly. Just need to knock another .6 off and I've got it :woot: 50 Free will take a small miracle to manage as that is over a second. And 100 IM will require dropping over 2 seconds so that will be a definate challenge. Paul Good luck Paul! Streamlining takes practice. You'll get there. May I recommend some shooters? :joker: (I too swam the 100 IM in the Sprint Classic as my first ever masters event 2 years ago. All I could think about was whether my goggles would stay on ...) Oh, BTW, UMBC is a crap pool whereas GMU is pretty fast. That will effect your time. Don't know if I'd expect big drops there, but you can get some good practice!
