RESULTS
psych sheet
Went to the meet this morning, it was fun to watch the fast "kids." Sat behind the blocks; lanes 4 and 5. Watched Soni and Kukors swim in their 200 BR heats; Amazing athletes. Some young gal edged out Soni in the prelims and she was beaming!!!
btw and fwiw; Phelps was sitting right next me for most of the 200BR Prelim heats.
I hope some of "it" rubbed off on me.
I was going to take the day off swimming today but will head to the pool for a sprint workout!!
:bliss:
has anyone ever done the last 50 of a 400 IM that fast?

Sitting right next to you? Long Beach must be more of a folksier meet than the Santa Clara Invitational (which I doubt b/c LB is LA). At SC last year, Phelps had a whole section to himself plus a security detail. No popping up a lawn chair right next to him there!
Enjoy your Aquaman's Aura speed increase!
