2008 USMS Long Course National Championships Thursday, August 14, 2008 - Sunday, August 17, 2008 at the Real Time Results Mt. Hood Community College Aquatic Center in Gresham, Oregon Heat/Psyche Sheets Results (no link yet) reading the heat sheet makes me wish I'd signed up
  • if you're going what events are you swimming? 800, 200, 100, 50 Free 100 *** What suit/s are you going to wear Free: FS Pro full suit ***: FS I knee suit or FS II jammers, TBD Sixth Event Decision DROPPED The Championship Committee has decided that swimmers' sixth event entries shall be dropped from this meet due to the large size of the meet and expected long days. The estimated time line will be available by Monday, July 21. Good move. Had I had even a lick of sense, I would have designated the 50 free as my 6th and had Sunday off. Although I like the 50.
  • if you're going what events are you swimming? 50 fly 50 free Sixth Event Decision Nobody needs to be swimming six events. Nor apparently a third :duel:

    What suit/s are you going to wear Nike Hydra jammer. It's black, the color of intimidation. LOL--classic. It's the colour of a funeral where I come from... so maybe I should save that for the 200 FLY ;)
  • Although we're swept up with the Olympics Let's not forget USMS LCM Nats are 2 days away and well worth following if you're going what events are you swimming? What suit/s are you going to wear Psyche as more USMS swimmers race in the latest tech suits like the Blue Seventy Nero Comp many world & USMS records are likely to fall, plus it's likely to take faster times to make top 10 What do you think? Sixth Event Decision DROPPED The Championship Committee has decided that swimmers' sixth event entries shall be dropped from this meet due to the large size of the meet and expected long days. The estimated time line will be available by Monday, July 21.
  • if you're going what events are you swimming? Sat - 50 Fly, 100 Free, 50 back Sun - 100 Back, 50 Free What suit/s are you going to wear A slightly too large Speedo FS kneeskin as I took too long in deciding what to order. Hopefully I can try on some suits, namely the B70, at Nats. Depending on how that feels during warmup, I might swim back in just my Speedo FS 2 jammer. What do you think? Sixth Event Decision DROPPED Given the number of registrants and only one course available, I think this is the right decision. It's going to be long days and it would have been unbearable if the 6th event was being swam. I just wish I had marked 100 back as my 6th instead of 50 ***.

I think Chris S. & I need to get you into a drinking game...and Hulk can be the bouncer when you try to crawl out on your stomach without paying up..

Sixth Event Decision DROPPED I'm too old to contemplate swimming 6 events in 2-3 days at top level, and I HATE spending 8+ hours at the pool - so, great! :blah:
