OK so now that the SCY season is over and the tech suits got their Viking funeral, it is time to embrace the metric system and wear FINA-barcoded swimsuits! :bliss:
Is anyone else going to the Tualatin Hills meet? I will be driving down and back the same day.

I entered the 100 fly, 50 *** (lulz), 200 IM, 50 fly, and 200 fly. Any gridges out there? Is Allen going to lap me in the 50 LCM breaststroke??? :anim_coffee:
D - Barely awake and saving all I had left for the 200 back. It wasn't much, but between the warm pool water and the warm air, I was having a hard time not snoozing. Really. And totally forgot that I entered it until right before the event.
I train in a pool that is too warm. When I do aerobic sets, overheating is a given. Even with long rest during anaerobic fly sets, my face remains somewhere in the red-to-purple part of the spectrum. (Funny contrast when I'm purple and some noodler climbing in acts like the water is cold. IT'S WARM, NOODLER!) So I'm used to warm water and T-Hills didn't bother me. Needless to say though, I'd rather compete in a cold pool!
