Fashion Line


Following in the footsteps of cultural icons like Jessica Simpson (footwear), JLo (handbags), and Pamela Anderson (beachwear?) I have decided to start my own line of fashion swimwear. And to do this, I have contracted with our own resident fashionista Elaine to design Lane 3 swimwear. We realize that this has a limited audience (3 women, 7 men) but I have a feeling that we will expand it to other lanes and come up with catchy slogans for each. For instance, "Lane 1: No talking, just swimming" might be an apt phrase, one worthy of a suit. Let me think about other slogans, ideas welcome. I actually am in possession of the suit in the photo, so will be debuting it next week.

warmdown set

The key to this is not to go too fast on the first set - a 1:20 pace is sufficient - so that you can hold a faster interval on the other sets because you get the rest. Well done by BB today, he left it all in the pool. And while at first I resented the "no kick sets" phrase on my suit (nobody wants to be called out on misbehavior publicly) it's true. I did not do the kick set today, I opted for masters choice.
