Jim,congrats on your #1 time in the 200 BR,although your victory should come with an asterisk as your arms are longer.I'm sure my head would have been in front of your head.Wait til next year(oops,this isn't the trash talk thread,forget it.)
Thanks,I was happy with all three BR times for this year.They were all faster than last year,even if I got beat in the 50 and 200(and the competition was really good.)
I only got in the top ten in one event, and it was one of my worst races of the year. Imagine diving in for a 200 fly and realizing before the end of the first 25 that you're completely exhausted and will be lucky to finish. That was my only top ten SCM time for 2007!
Similar story,but not as happy an ending.I swam a 200 fly 20 min after a"go out too fast and REALLY die"200 BR.It was the 11th place time(but I went faster than I thought I would and am proud I didn't chicken out and scratch.)

Guess it beats a kick in the a**. Way to go.
I need a new age group that does not include KPN. lol
BUT, I was very excited. Just got an email from a teammate alerting me to the fact that our mixed 200 free relay was #1!! Not bad for a smaller club team. :bouncing:
I can't believe that people are actually complaining about not making top 10 in more events, or not placing high enough.
I'd be happy with one #10 place. At the rate I'm going, I'll be lucky to place #10 in 30-35 years in any event.
