Hey guys.
I am in College Station at our Big 12 Championship meet. It's the biggest team meet of the season, and definately a culmination of hard work.
The coolest thing about it this year is that it is on LIVE streaming cam with sound!
GO TO: AggieAthletics.com (there is a list of all the events going on click on the one for womens swimming and diving big 12 champs)
This season has been particularly tough for me. I subluxed a knee cap in the beginning of the season, and then an old back injury flared up and kept me out of the water, along with my mother being diagnosed with cancer. So, this meet rather than swimming it tip top form and looking to win events I am out of have fun and support my team... and hopefully swim Fast.
I swim for the University of Texas Longhorns....
I will be swimming the following events
Thursday 50 Yard Freestyle (11:08 AM Texas Time)
Friday 100 Backstroke (11:13 AM Texas Time)
Saturday 100 Freestyle (10:19 AM Texas Time)
If i make it back to finals at night I will post the time I will be swimming. I hope some of you can watch! There will be a lot of REALLY FAST swimming going on and a preview of your 2008 Olympic Team members
To give you an idea of how fast we Longhorns are swimming our boys missed the AMERICAN RECORD tonight by 2 tenths of a second.
Let me know if you are watching! I will try and say hi!
