Being an average swimmer and not owning a high tech suit I have never cared about what suits others wear. All I wanted to do was swim my own race, although I will admit that winning is fun.
However, at a inter-squad meet this past Friday I borrowed a old fastskin hi-neck kneeskin from my coach. WOW!! What a feeling!!
Swam five events in one hr. (yes I know, a lot for 1 hr.).
Swam "masters" personal best in two events.
Swam a lifetime PB in one event.
The other two events were very repectable swims for me.
I am not bragging, just wanted to find an audience that would understand. Wish I would have bought a suit earlier.
I didn't want to put it this way out of possibly offending anybody.
But I will go ahead anyway.
They say it's better to be born blind than to go blind because in the former case, you never realize quite what you're missing.
You came so close, Joel, to making it through to Jan. 1 without tasting the heady elixir of sight!
Alas, now you will have tasted it and lost it!
Of such tragedies are composed roughly 90 percent of Greek myth!
