Rankings

I recently found out that all masters swimmers get nationally ranked based on their times during the year.  The short course yards season froms from June 1 to May 31.  Here is how I made out in the final rankings at this distance:

50 Free-338 out of 500 plus (they only rank to 500)
100 Free-316 out of 486
100 IM-291 out of 371
50 Breast - 245 out of 332

The Long Course Meters goes from October to September 30

Here is how I currently stand, but may fall as the last events come in,

50 Free-122 of 190
100 Free - 122 of 185
200 Free - 117 of 136

Short Course Meters runs January to December,  I hope to swim a short course meters race between now and the end of the year am currently

50 Free - 28 of 40 (this with a slow time).  my converted time would have me at 23.  I guess not as many people swim at these pools or maybe those meets are just getting cranked up.
