I enjoyed relay day despite swimming in the first event of the day and the last (including 2 in the middle). Sunday I did hurt but it wasn't until the 90 meter mark of the 100 fly. I also enjoyed meeting fellow forumites (Paul and Ahelee) and seeing great swims by Chris, Allen and others. 9 events still has me walking a little funny today but I'll heal. Congrats to all. Looking forward to Atlanta in the spring.
I would have figured out who you were so much easier Jeff had you told me you were the forumite with the "finish kiss from his curley haired child" profile photo!
I LOVED RELAY DAY!
So did maybe 90% of the swimmers I spoke to afterwards.
I was tired at the end on Saturday. I think I actually stayed in and rested that night.
Friday and Saturday at the end of the meet the pool was open for swimming. I was one of the last swimmers out of the pool at closing. (Thanks Indy SwimFit for keeping it open an hour after the meet ended!)
By Sunday I felt back to normal.
Totally worth it!
A story I heard several times over, even outside my own team, was about swimmers planning and training together to go to INDY to swim club relays.
That goal kept them on track to get to the meet when life tried to get in the way with distractions.
I appreciate the flexibility of the USMS to try out different scenarios.
But like I said before, it sure is hard to please everyone!
