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.
Wan't the IGLA a USMS samctioned or recognized meet?
it was a sanctioned meet.
If so, your top ten recorder should submit the times to USMS for top ten consideration.
the times will be submitted to USMS (as the meet was a USMS sanctioned meet). i actually think they have already been submitted...
I understand that FINA may not have given the meet a sanction (although I've no idea why), but if USMS did, why are those results not being counted?
FINA does not grant sanctions, they delegate that to the NGBs in each country. again, USMS did sanction the meet.
no one i've talked to seems to know exactly why FINA is not accepting the times, and as far as i know, USMS is still working to get the times accepted...
EDIT: it turns out FINA finally did the right thing and decided to accept the times from the IGLA meet!
