CT Masters Games 5-15-2016

Connecticut Masters Games - I decided not to swim the 50 Free because this meet is the last yards meet of the year so I wanted to focus on improving times in other events.

I swan and 100 Breast, and scorched it with a 1.,29.33, which qualified me for Montreal Worlds in 2014, which I know is past, but now I have qualified in 5 events.  This was the one I trained for, knowing I would be at top energy.  I took 5 seconds off my previous best time.

Then I swam the 200 IM, which I last swam 2 years ago recreationally.  I put more effort into it and took my time down by 20 seconds.  I did a 3:20:57.

Then I swam the 100 IM, and missed a PR, but improved on the last time I swam it.  I was a little disappointing, but my legs were tired.  My time was 125.18 with a split of 42.44.  I have to get faster in the first part.  i think i am not swimming the back hard enough.

last I swam the 100 Free, and was disappointed with 1.11.53 with a 31.91 split so I really really slowed down.  I was tired and my legs were dead and I missed some of the flips, so I had little momentum off the wall.

Overall though I was satisfied with the meet.

Now I have to refocus on the coming year.

all told for this past yards seasons, I saw best times in all events except to 100 free and the 100 IM.
