Wilton Summer Sizzler 7-10-2016

Swam in the Summer Sizzler Long Course at Wilton.

Started off the meet with the Men's 400 free Relay. We were going for a national top ten.  We came in at 6.08.25

 Men 240-279 400 Meter Freestyle Relay 1 CONN 'A' M240-279 CONN 6:08.25 1) Smally, Alan J (M67) 2) Epstein, Paul M (M70) 3) Canning, Peter (M58) 4) Spear, Rick (M65)

 I didn't get a split but I am guessing I went somewhere around 1.20-1.23. Again, I went out way too fast.

Then I swam the 50 and was a little disappointed with 32.96. I got tired at the end and fishtailed.

The 50 Breast was also a little disappointing as I came in 45.98, my best time at long course, but I felt I could go faster.

Last event was the 800 Free relay. Again no split, but I felt I swam well and we should be a lock for a national top ten with our 14.08.78 time.  We'll find out in December.

There wasn't a lot of people at the meet and it went very quickly.

Mystic Sharkfest 7-9-2016

Swam the Mystic Sharkfest.  Due to weather/safety concerns, they shortened the course to 1000 meters from 1500.

Initial results had no time for me.  I am hoping because they had a bunch of errors, i will have a time in the amended results due later.  Since it was time trial style, I don't know what my time was, and will be bumped if I don't get a time.

Here are some photos:
