Left the hotel in plenty of time this morning...lots of heats in the 500, meant a little more sitting around than we would have liked after warming up, but Britt had a great warm up. She had her fastest 25 sprint to finish up warm up. We also had to sit through the 100 backstrokes, but they went a lot faster than the 500's.
Britt was in the last heat of 5 in lane 6. She ended up racing to a 3rd place finish in her heat...Had a few shortened up strokes towards the end of the race when the fatigue started to set in, but other than that the whole 100 looked great ... strong and fast! Her time of 1:03.90 tied her for 5th going in to finals. Already filled out the bio form for her and at the same time discovered she will be in lane 7 (was in lane 8 for the 50, and 6 for the prelim swim...Britt said " i like this side of the pool" ... is is definitely the loudest side with it being against the wall where teams can stand (lane 1 is against the bulk head where only coaches can stand).
Had a super delish Jimmy Johns lunch before coming back to the hotel ... time to rest and relax before heading back for finals!
