Geeky Yet Waterproof

This weekend was the CAT Open, our second meet of the season, in Corvallis. I swam the 200 free, 50 free, 100 butterfly, 400 free, 400 IM, 200 butterfly, and 100 free, in that order. We also had a 400 free relay and a 400 medley relay.



For my 400 IM, Kate told me to go out so easy in the butterfly that it would feel like I’m going to flop my race.

So I went out even easier.

To compare: Andrew only beat me by one second, but my butterfly was three seconds slower than his.

Note to self: take your butterfly out controlled, but not idiotically slow.



For my own records, these were my 400 IM splits:



34.9

39.5 1:15.4

42.0

42.0 1:24.0

46.6

47.1 1:33.7

37.3

35.5 1:12.7

5:25.29



We did pretty well in our 400 medley relay (with Adam doing back, Kyle doing breast, me doing fly, and Andrew doing free): we dropped 13 seconds off our time, and took 4th place overall.

You know you want to watch it.
