Dennis is making another run at his trials cut this coming weekend.
I believe it is too late to qualify for trials?
I just read that he just missed.2:04.25.Only .26 off.Pretty darn good for a 46 year old:cheerleader::cheerleader:
It is an amazing swim. I believe the 200 fly is the event most affected by age (and extra weight, for that matter).
I keep in pretty good shape, but last summer I was a whopping 14 seconds from my college time in the 200 LCM fly. It is a brutal event (though one I used to love when younger).
So what Dennis has done is pretty incredible.
