Finals

Just 3 swims tonight.  Jenna went into finals in the 100 fly 7th, and stayed 7th ... just a little off her prelim time, but a great race!  Britt swam the 100 breast as the top seed, went out .3 slower in the first 50 and her final time was about .2 slower than this morning ... had a GREAT race and finished 2nd.  We finished the session with the 800 free relay, and dropped about 22 seconds on the night with everyone (Durham, Miller, Navarro & Blesh) in the 159-200 range. 

Another feast from Olive Garden for dinner ... special thanks to the Rehrig's and Campbell's for helping out with picking up of the food while we are able to go right back to the hotel and relax.

Going to sleep in a little bit longer than normal tomorrow morning before heading to the pool for the events that sent a lot of people to this meet.  200 back, 100 free, & a big one for us ... 200 fly.  We will also have Kasey's 1650 free before we hit wegmans for lunch, before heading back to the hotel for some quality rest and relaxation before heading to the pool for finals.

Great Racing so far ... but still another whole day of excitement for us, even though we are graduating 5 of our 13 qualifiers we are still a very young team and there is a lot of valuable experience being gained at this meet.

Tomorrow's blog updates, may be a little slow, but will get them up asap.

also, of note ...  tomorrow evening, before the 1650 we will get our time trial in of the 200 medley relay ... give it another shot ... can't wait!
