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?
I am having my best meet yet right now. When I was done with my swims for the day, I told my coach, "And the best part is, I have four more races tomorrow!"
Today, I swam the 100 fly, 100 back, 100 free, and 500 free.
PBs going into the meet:
100 fly: 1:10.67
100 back: 1:14.05
100 free: 58.64
500 free: 6:08.85
new PBs:
100 fly: 1:04.20
100 back: 1:08.60
100 free: 53.13
500 free: 5:32.77
:bolt:
The 5.5 second drops in the 100 back and free are only my 2nd-biggest ones ever. The 500 free time is my first time under 6 minutes, and it finally tops my time from April of last year. FINALLY! 36-second drop, too. :)
tomorrow's events: 200 back, 200 free, 100 ***, 50 free.
Way to go Couroboros. I hope your meet continues well today.
