Wednesday--Competition Begins!


Britt got things going with a pretty solid swim in the 50 Free, tying her time from last year in prelims (24.07), nice stuff and she looks/feels ready for the rest of this week, so we're hoping for some big things!

Afterward, Britt, her parents, and myself enjoyed some Applebees and some more southern hospitality! As noted before, people down here are just as polite as can be and its made for a great environment this week!

 Britt went to her parents hotel and did some sight seeing, and I spent some quality time at the hotel. We went back to the pool to watch finals and cheer on the PSAC! Britt feels good in this pool, and it looks like a lot of other swimmers do too. It has buffer lanes in the outside (10 lane pool set up as an 8 lane pool) so the waves aren't splashing back. It just goes to show that if you make it back and get a lane, you've got a chance!

We went to a personal favorite Chuys (Tex Mex) for dinner. Props to Mike Kerr of U of Indy for letting us know there is one here. Chuys is a frequented stop from the days of working Longhorns Swim Camp in Austin, Texas and I was glad to see Britt enjoyed it as well! 


Britt is off on Thursday. We're going to go get a swim in at noon at the Crossplex (shooting to get her in there when a lot of people are not so she can work on turns and finishes.) and is back in action at 10am (11am Lock Haven time) tomorrow! Later on tonight we will see Haven Track kick it off with Mark Manno throwing! Going to be a good day off! GO HAVEN
