We talk a lot about how the person you are racing is yourself and that is the most important measure and that you can only control what you do,not what the competition does.At the same time we have medals and AAs and records and TT etc.So which is more important to you? I was musing on this for myself after the SPMA meet.I went my best time in the 100M BR in 5 yr,but was beaten by Jim Clemmons.In the 50 BR I won,but was .3 sec slower than last yr.That got me wondering about goals.So,where do you stand?
My best swim ever may have been a 50 LCM BR against Bob Strand.He won(of course) but I swam my best time in 13 years.I love swimming against Bob and he usually brings out the best in me.In that last 100 BR he was in lane 7 and I in lane 8.It just doesn't get better than that(unless I finally beat him,that would be better.)
