Gil Young Memorial/NW LCM Zones Gridge Thread

www.swimoregon.org/.../09LCMZones.pdf I entered 5 events, all on Sunday: 200 fly, 100 free, 100 fly, 200 ***, 400 free. I've never done the 100 free or 200 *** in LCM so lifetime bests are anticipated :D Who's going? What are you swimming?

  • I bow to you as you have won the gridge. My shoulder gave out and as a result I scratched my last 2 events , one of which was the 400. What am I supposed to do with all these Canadians?!? Srsly though, sorry about your shoulder. I hope you feel better soon. I don't see any results posted yet (www.terrapinmasters.org/2009TerrapinCup.htm); how did you do in your first 3 races? In preparation for my 400 in 3 weeks, I've started increasing the amount of freestyle that I do in practice. Since I'm not doing any backstroke or IM this meet, I can decrease those in practice for a little while in favor of freestyle. To get ready for that other event, today I did a 200 fly (SCY). After biking, swimming, lifting, and running for over 2 hours yesterday, I was tired and sore today, so that 200 fly was slow, but I finished it. And afterward I descended 8x50 fly on 1:30. Next Sunday I'll shoot for at least a 250, and then at least a 300 the Sunday after that, to get myself ready for the kind of overall stroke count that I'll be doing in the 200 LCM. To get ready for the 200 ***, I've been trying to get my kick consistent... it's anything but consistent at the moment... :badday:
