9Brighton Meet Results

It was a rough week training to say the least. Work consumed all waking hours which left little time for exercise or anything else for that matter, including sleep. I missed two days in the pool and three days of P90X.
I had a mediocre meet. Nowhere near where I thought I would be at this point in my training. Sort of a disappointment. The meet also lasted 4.5 Hours, which was really quite crazy for a local Masters meet. I'm glad it was well attended but WOW, was that long. I'm still glad I attended but I noticed some people, including my friend Dave, simply couldn't dedicate half their day to a meet and eventually had to leave early. The last heats of the meet needed to be combined because so many people took off.
50 Fly SCM: 25.63
50 Free SCM: 24.17
100 Free SCM: 54.31
50 Back SCM: 27.24 (whoa... that hurts)
Overall, I'm not impressed with any of my performances. ESPECIALLY the 50 Back. My only excuse is that it was about 12 minutes after the 100 Free so I wasn't very rested. But twenty seven seconds?! I wanted to be over two seconds faster than that! The rest of my times weren't horrible, but they certainly weren't impressive based on my performances a year ago. My 100 free time makes me wonder how the heck I swam a 51.75 at Chicago two years ago. Thank you to everybody who attended, helped film and also take pictures:
