Sorry Fort, we have you, who deserves a top ten time by swimming fast not on some lists, and then we have no-talent ***hat's, swimming slow and gaming the system to make the top 10 in the Men's 30-34 1500M. Sad.
You EARNED IT, the clock does the talking for you! Congratulations!!! Whether it's a record setting All American time or those where you "squeak" in, who cares!! In the end, they are all lifetime achievement awards!! They are all great times and you should be proud of yourself!!

I agree!!
I made it in the 400 IM with a horrible time and with only 1 good ankle so I swam fly 1 legged.

You're awesome! See, there is a story behind every swim! There are plenty of people out there with 2 good ankles who didn't swim the event!!!!
Once again, I have times missing ... and in the two hardest events I swim.
:badday:
I hope this can be fixed, as I was explicitly assured in writing (just like last time) that they would be submitted.
Sorry, not buying that. You swam it, they didn't. Your time kicks the ever living crap out of me right now.
Very nice Q!
Remember, alot of people in our age group took the summer off and you didn't, so you earned that TT ranking. :applaud:. Also, you are now a nationally ranked swimmer. Bravo.

Thanks everyone.
Just for ***ts & grins, I tried this out, for me. Shocked to see that I was a part of not 1, but 2 top 10 relays, way back in 1999. Who'd have pegged me for a top anything, certainly not I. Surely the rest of the relay carried me.
Thought I'd share and relish this, as now that I'm in the most competitive age group, it will never happen again.
Tell me about it!...as if turning 40 isn't bad enough...
200 LCM BR last year...about 11th or 12th...this year...39th...
Mother Finner!
...I knew I should have gotten a b70...

Not to worry. It's preliminary.
I doubt that the 45 year old in your age group went a 2:09 for the 200 meter back!
Your local TT person should be able to get it squared away. That's what they're there for.
I had some swims that didn't make the preliminary list a few years ago.After some frantic emails to the LMSC and USMS TT people it got straightened out.Just send out positive vibes and it will work out.
PS Fort,congrats on your AA time in the 50 BK.
Our Beautiful Stroke Guru has posted a 100 LCM time this year that is .07 faster than he swam at LC Nats in Knoxville, 1975!! (Alas, his 200 time was .2 slower this year.) This is surely the last time our times were comparable!
What a beast!!
Great job, Allen!
