Hey Forumites!
If you are even considering the possibility of attending LCM Nationals, August 3-6, JUST DO IT! :thewave: (That Guy, this Smilie's for you! :D)
I just got back from the Auburn Masters SCY Invitational and it was a fantastic meet. Conner Bailey and his team did a PERFECT job organizing and running that meet. The events even ran ahead of schedule both days! :applaud: THANK YOU!
A BIG thanks, also, to my fellow GAJA teammates for your friendliness, encouragement, and warm welcome, when I was thrown onto your relay team at the last minute: Kristin Aziz, Alison Ibarguen, and Marianne Countryman. You gals rock! Hey, thanks for saying I did well, too, because my split was more than 4 seconds off my PB for 50 breaststroke! :afraid:(I thought Sunday was my 10th day swimming in a row, but, looking at my FLOG, it was my 12th day! I guess I was trying to make up for my lack of enough pool time, while I was in Califorinia. And, the previous weeks' meet didn't help matters, either. I was pooped!)
Another big thanks to Donna Hooe for doing everything she could to get me on three relays, since I was the odd woman out at Nationals, last year- thanks!
Finally, a special BIG thanks to Peter McCoy, David Berry, Coach David, and the others from the Madison Titans who were so NICE to me! You guys made my weekend! I appreciated your encouragement and advice, while we shared a bench on the bleachers all weekend. You guys were the greatest- AND FAST! Congratulations!!! :bow:
The pool at Auburn University is fantastic, too! It's a great facility and everybody there was so nice and helpful. I'll be there in August and I hope you will, too! :agree:
Cheers!

... it always seemed that it was right before one of my events. And no one in his/her right mind would want to talk to me then. :)
I saw that game face!! And I thought, "I'll pick a better time ..." :)
What a great meet! This is my second year at Auburn, and it runs like a well-oiled machine. Great people, great pool, AND I cut 6 seconds off my 400 IM ... :banana:... no funny adventures with starting horns or counters, everything ran like a clock!
