June Gridge Thread

T minus 11 days until I race the long distance pentathlon (200 LCM back, 200 LCM free, 200 LCM ***, 200 LCM fly, and 400 LCM IM) against an unknown challenger. I have it on good authority that this mystery swimmer will be wearing a Mexican wrestling mask and will not remove it between events. There are also unsubstantiated rumors that this person uses performance enhancing carbohydrates and caffeine, and may have even considered sandbagging once before chickening out. I'm told that our gridge hinges upon our total pentathlon time, but the stakes of this gridge have not yet been revealed even to me. Who is this enigmatic maverick, and why has he never been photographed with Gotham's caped crusader Bat Guy?

    Thing is, I'm going to sprint like crazy for the 100, finish legal, old school turn and keep going so as to not damage the total time too much for the pentathalon gridge. Isn't that your normal strategy, sprint the 100 and hold on tight for whatever is left? I bet that strategy was a joy during the 1500 ;)
