I've been encouraged to get myself registered so I can enter some Masters competitions. There was one last weekend where a host of people I know went swimming: Craig (active swim coach); Gary (Buxton coach); Diane (Buxton coach) and Carla (Buxton speedie) all entered. So I had a look at both their times and the times for the events that I would have (possibly) entered.

Craig -
200 IM 2:41.53 (3rd)
100 free 0:55.96 (1st)

Carla -
50 fly 31.59 (1st)
50 free 29.62 (1st)
50 back 34.83 (1st)

Diane -
50 fly 33:10 (2nd)
100 breast 1:22.66 (1st)
400 IM 5:36 (1st)
200 IM 2:38.46 (1st)
100 fly 1:13.56 (1st)

Gary -
100 free 1:04.07 (2nd)
50 fly 31:01 (1st)
50 free DQ
200 free 2:24.72 (2nd)

Now the events I'd have swum would probably have been the 50, 100 and 400 free and the 50 fly. So in my age group (the last place mentioned is where I'd be placed)...

50 Free
1st - 27:29
2nd - 27:77
3rd - 27:78
10th - 31:71

100 Free
1st - 1:00.12
2nd - 1:02.91
3rd - 1:03.21
7th - 1:06.92

400 Free
1st - 4:46.79
2nd - 5:30.63

50 fly
1st - 31.44
2nd - 31.58
3rd - 31.64
5th - 34.78

Mmm - interesting (well to me anyway!)
