Let's hear some results from Albatross.
I swam in Roanoke today at the Mad Dog Masters meet. I swam the 50 and 100 free, the 50 *** and the 50 fly.
I went 31.10 for the 50 free - a little over a half second improvement from Richmond, with no taper and no rest, plus, I lost my goggles on the start:bitching:. I stood on the blocks with a plan to bust 30, but the goggles took my focus away on the first length. Oh well, this meet was my FIRST EVER last year, and I went 32.82. I'm getting there! Zones baby, zones!
I went 1:10.44 for the 100 free - a little over two seconds faster than the Patriot Masters Sprint Classic and 8 seconds faster than this same meet last year. Again, I lost my goggles at the start:rant3:! I don't know what was going on there.
40.13 for the 50 *** - 1.5 seconds faster than Patriot Sprint Classic
40.54 for the 50 fly - first time to finish w/o DQ. My arms felt like they were not going to come out of the water over the last 10 yards or so!
All in all, I'm happy with the times considering I lost my goggles twice and did not rest coming into the meet. I'm hoping that with some quality workouts over the next month, a good taper and a fast pool at GMU, I can swim some great times (for me)!
Now, about that grudge 200 br Stud???
