I had swam a 100 free and a 50 free already that day (I think I had around a 1:10 and about a :30)........I would be lucky to break :40 in a 50 today..........lol I gulped a huge amount of water about 15yds from the finish and got DQ'd for touching bottom.........Lauren did not swim the next year and neither did I.........I was a sprinter in my youth........and as I got older my endurance got better and when I had time.........I would swim miles..........(at a much slower pace........but it was good for me)..........I have not done that for about 5 years either..........although it would do me a lot of good these days.............. There was a regular in the Masters program here on the Gulf Coast that was part of the 1972 Olympic team that swam with Mark Spitz (he was on the Gold Winning 400 Medley Relay team)............he stayed in shape although he was in his late 40's he was a site to watch......... I was a decent HS swimmer and swam in all the Summer programs............ When Lauren started, I thought it would be fun to participate also..........and it was.........maybe I would be in better shape if any of the kids would have shown an interest in it.............
