For all of you who know Leslie the Fortress Livingston, this should help you know her better.
For all of you who don't know Leslie the Fortress Livingston, prepare for the thrill ride get-to-know-Leslie event of the year.
A little background: Leslie is the 4th woman in history in the 45-49 year age group to beat 30 seconds in the 50 SCM butterfly.
She did this at age 47, and it is possible that she is actually the FIRST woman in history this old to break 30 at the age (assuming the previous 3 were 45 or 46.)

This small film will help you understand all that goes into becoming an extraordinary human being/swimmer. Oh, and there's a little about Leslie in this, too.
Just joking. It's all about Leslie. With some guest appearances by Paul Wolf, Julie "Mulie" Oplinger, Jeff "the Barbarian" Roddin, and Jim Thornton as "the narrator."
Please enjoy before Leslie forces Jim Matysek to take this down.
Laurie DiTommaso, age 46, swam a :29.21 in the 50 meter fly at the Colonies SCM Zone Championship on December 6, 2008. :banana:
I don't have any really cool video or anything but I can tell you the smile on her face after her swim was wonderful to behold. I felt honored being there to witness her joy. It is just one of those moments you remember and confirms why you attend swim meets. These women - age 45-49 - are amazing!!!!
