Just heard that at long course nationals in Oregon this summer Dennis Baker plans to swim the 1500 butterfly instead of freestyle!!! The tank is supposed to be one of the fastest in the country with the new remodel.

I've also been thinking of trying an 800 or 1000 medley, just to make the 400 feel shorter.
I did this a few years ago at a 1000 meet. I ended up with a 15:30, which was a couple of minutes faster then I thought I could do. I just looked at my times and I held pretty well for each 50, at least for me. I remember feeling sick on the *** though.
