Officially Entered in the 2011 Canada Cup!

With as many meets as I've missed out on lately due to poor planning.  I was almost surprised to see my name correctly listed in the Psych sheet released yesterday.  I'm ranked poorly in each event but I'm confident I will significantly move up and hopefully even make it into one of the finals heats.  I had to chuckle as I attempted to read the PDF release, written entirely in french.  If I didn't know what my times were, I wouldn't even know what events I was entered in!  My rankings are as follows:

100 Free: 87th with a 54.81
100 Back: 44th with a 1:01.40
50 Fly: 56th with a 27.03
50 Free: 46th with a 24.59
50 Back: 45th with a 29.45

Since they are apparently running 10 lanes per heat with Finals, Consols and a bonus heat (a total of 30 swimmers make it back in the evening), I think I have a fair chance of returning for some finals swims in the 50 back and 100 back.

Today the taper group had a very easy practice which consisted of a total of 20 minutes of burst weights and abs (filled with a lot of standing around) followed by a relatively easy 1500 yard swim.  It was really nice to take it easy today!
