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?
Great work, Couro, and Oz!
Hey, Oz, how about a showdown 200 fly at Greensboro next year? I did 3:19 in my local Senior Games in May. Of course, we would both probably be eating the wake of a certain Mr. Poiletman, the World Record holder!
My most memorable, if not best, was way back in '76 when they only gave medals for six places at Nats. At Long Course in St. Louis, a got a complete set in 7 events (1st in 100 BR).
