  • Stephanie Rice broke the world record in both the 200 and 400 IM. This is nuts! We are seeing world records broken almost daily between Aussie trials and Euro Champs (which I think are over now). Insanity! I wonder how the Olympics will actually go down. It seems to me that they are NOT as fast as other meets through out the year. The pressure to make the team seems to be higher. Once you get to the Olympics all that matters is getting your hand to the wall first. I wonder how many world records we will see there. Will Katie Hoff take back her 400 IM record? How many records will fall at US trials? Cannot wait!!!
  • I wonder how the Olympics will actually go down. Any idea how fast the pool is? I would assume that it probably takes advantage all the latest pool technology. Anything new on the horizon beyond the usual deep water, wave-canceling lane lines, sloping gutters, lane line outside the outer lanes (or extra empty outside lanes)? Skip
