For me, I just had mine this weekend. :)
I was entered in five events: 1.) 50 free, 2.) 200 free, 3.) 100 back, 4.) 100 ***, and 5.) 100 free.
old and new PB times:
50fr: the only event I didn't drop time, PB is still 27.53 (Oct '10).
200fr: 2:28.11 (Jul '10)/2:18.99
100 back: 1:23.19 (Oct '10)/1:18.03
100 ***: 1:28.11 (Oct '10)/1:26.73
100 free: 1:02.64 (Oct '10)/1:00.03
FOUR MILLISECONDS AWAY FROM GOING UNDER!!! AAARGH! Still, it was a mega monster 2.5 second drop from my old PB.
This month marks two years since I started swimming, though I didn't start competitively until January '09.
The piano dropped in none of these events. At the end of each, I was ready to get right back in and race again. The 50 free was just a stupid mistake- I didn't warm up properly, else I would've dropped time there, too. There were lessons to be learned and new mistakes to be avoided after my previous meet last month. I learned them and avoided them.
My best meet yet.
What about your best meets?
My best meet ever was SC Nationals in Chapel Hill in 1992. I was 50 and did my best ever Masters times. I had been swimming Masters since I was 34 so it was a big deal for me. It was a result of rarely missing practice and putting a little more intensity into my practices.
