Wondering what some of the unofficial records are at short-course nationals:
Most consecutive meets attended ?
Most meets attended and estimated travel mileage for all those meets ?
Most consecutive wins in an event ?
Most Titles ?
Swimmers winning a "dceade" in an event - meaning winning a race every year in their 40ies, 50 ies or so on ?
Has anybody won every event (over several years of course) - if not who has won the most different events ?
Any other mosts you can think of ... ?
Note this post Michael Moore!
I think it was 1997 Nationals. Michael Moore DQs BOTH Duggan's. Pat in the 400 IM, which he won by more than half a body length (he cited that one hand was 'about an inch' lower than the other on one breaststroke turn), and then DQd me in 200 back, where I got 2nd (close to 1st I think), because on my first turn I "glided" into the wall- but only on the first turn (when I had the most speed you know).
Michael was NOT a very popular person in our house for some time. But now I've got to know him and really like him. And more than that he has contributed SO MUCH to Pacific Masters and USMS both. His efforts are tremendous, as are Nancy Ridout's and Barry Fasbenders. (But they didn't DQ us!).
