Too much of nothing so why don't we give it a try; too much of something we're probably living a lie

Well the 2009 short-course yards Masters season started for me this weekend with a meet in nearby Plantation yesterday and Friday. The meet went alright: it was well run/done, and I did as I can expect, I guess. (And I say "I guess", as I'm not really evaluating how I did: I don't really have a way to directly compare at this point, so I'm opting to do so with more abstract, subjective, observations, like how I felt in the water... which was alright.)

Anyways, my times from the meet:

Friday
-1,000 free: 10:45.77 (5:26/5:19)
-400 IM: 4:37.30 (I felt I could push my backstroke some, which was nice.)

Saturday
-200 free: 1:58.51 (58.33/1:00.18)
-200 back: 2:06.11 (1:01.78/1:04.33)
-200 fly: 2:11.94 (1:04.71/1:07.23)
-500 free: 5:10.60 (It seemed like I was able to come back well on the back half of the race: a good.)

Gears are still missing, but they aren't going to have appeared in the 2 weeks since I last mentioned they were missing (they've been gone for awhile... and will need some time to reappear).

Full results from the meet are available here (and in some cases, things were better than last year's meet at this time...)


Road to nowhere, twist and turns but will this never end
Well my dear you know that he pleases me (pleases me)
But short-term solution ain't no resolution
There ain't no release for me...
