Day 1

So day one of the MN Grand Prix and the Loveland Fall Open are in the books.

We had a good day at both meets. Rin and Christine both made it back at Grand Prix. CJ went almost the same tonight as this morning and ended up 15th. Solid swim for her. Rin moved up a spot to 21st in the 100 br with a 58.55 in finals. Great effort for both of them, especially Rin who posted 3 best times today and completed over a second drop in the Breast.

At Loveland we all swam the 500 tonight. It went well for some and iffy for others, but the good outweighed the iffy. Anna and Heather were right on their best times and I was proud of the first timers tonight. Siobhan, Kourt and Caroline swam the 500for the first time ever. Caroline and Melissa even did it backstroke and we very impressive. The boys were solid too. Especially Max (4;57) and Geoffrey (4:52) who both went best times by a chunk. Goeffrey's 4:52 was his first sectional cut as well. Willy also rolled the 500 back and was 5;33. That's holding 1;06 100's backstroke. It was fun to watch.

More tomorrow.
