Let's be positive here folks as this was a superb meet. Here's my TT list of likes (in stream of consciousness, not necessarily priority)
Too many inspirational / motivational people and swims to count
Meeting many (but not nearly enough) forumites & bloggers
Mark Gill announcing -- keep the guy on the microphone as much as possible (Paul Smith, think caffeine drip and catheter setup:))
The dry side facility -- smoothie stand, spectator seating, the view of both courses, the scoreboard, the reaction times on the scoreboard
Ga Tech Hotel -- exceeded expectations
Ga Tech Trolleys and easy access to the pool
Starbucks across the street from the Ga Tech hotel (gull, FYI)
Location / easy airport access
Indoor facility -- I love to train outdoors and race indoors
The super-friendly support staff / volunteers running things with efficiency and southern charm
1. Fast pool (although my swims were horrendous).
2. Mark as announcer again. Pat's parents from CT thought he was the best.
3. Meeting MANY forumites, usually on accident :)
4. The trolley and MARTA were awesome (met many forumites there!)
5. 52. 100 ***. WOW.
6. Genadijus was there.
7. Lots of food choices.
8. I learned that 5 days is too long to stay away from my kids. Was already missing them by Friday night.
9. The people of Atlanta were SO friendly, wherever we went.
10. My hubby putting on a tech suit, finally, for his last race, and winning it.
:applaud:
