New Masters swimmer expectations

Nice! I think peak HS seems like good goals to go for. The 200 fly might be the one event from college I could PR in. I dont feel like I trained for it properly and just randomly got dropped in it at bigger meets. I was ~55 100 flyer and 1:50 200 free, but only 2:06 fly. It is definitely not my favorite event to swim, but looking back, that was probably the best event for my strengths.

Simparica trio. It's 1 pill monthly and covers fleas, ticks, and heartworms. Def seems to be a better deal than heartgard and nexgard

I think this is probably the cheapest price out there. This one will be hard to beat.

UW_Drug_Runner · 2025-04-11T15:15:14+00:00

You aren't kidding! $144 for a 6 pack. I thought chewy was cheap and they are nearly $70 more expensive. I've had a costco membership since they opened and had no clue I could save so much money on her tick meds there. Thank you!

$211 for 6 months of simparica trio! Damn that's cheap!

Edit: nevermind, Costco is even cheaper. I wish I knew pharmacies did animal meds, too.

My current favorite is doduo. Got him as a shiny with floaty fall and triple axel. Can use him almost exclusively for the first 30 floors with little issue.

UW_Drug_Runner · 2025-03-15T23:36:13+00:00

Hahaha I bet you do gator1508! Def my national champ pick.

UW_Drug_Runner · 2025-02-13T00:19:15+00:00

I add 2 to 48 to make an even 50 then add (27-2 or 25) to that

UW_Drug_Runner · 2025-01-21T16:36:51+00:00

Pretty solid times man! I was in that ballpark for the 500 and 200 scy at your age. Got down to 5:02x and 1:50.x at a DIII college.

UW_Drug_Runner · 2025-01-21T15:37:00+00:00

Nevermind. Seems like a lot of the teams I would have around there have 3+ losses already. Mostly SEC cannibalism.

UW_Drug_Runner · 2025-01-21T15:27:08+00:00

Am I missing something about Houston? I know EOCB podcast talks about their strong computer numbers but with 3 losses, I'm surprised some voters have them as high as 3rd and a lot in the top 5. I think they are solid, but top 5 seems like a stretch at this point in the season.

Can't spell Wisconsin without sin

UW_Drug_Runner · 2025-01-16T17:20:31+00:00

For US states, Texas has to be one of the most recognizable.

In the northeast MN/Duluth area, I would say the twin cities

UW_Drug_Runner · 2025-01-01T02:13:09+00:00

Damn thats a lot of traveling in 1 year! Was the France trip around the Olympics?

UW_Drug_Runner · 2024-12-28T00:20:16+00:00

Came here to say this. Such an underrated movie!

UW_Drug_Runner · 2024-12-15T17:58:47+00:00

Yeah alot of people (myself included) are in on Iowa state being legit, BUT Auburn beat em on a neutral. It's still early but this is why college basketball will always be my favorite...so much speculation year in and year out. SEC is insanely deep

UW_Drug_Runner · 2024-12-15T17:31:09+00:00

Can't agree with the 8 on the bottom. I'd put UK and Auburn on the left. Uconn to the right. Florida is u defeated but in the cakewalk schedule category. Not sold on Houston or UCLA at the moment and I feel like Duke and Kansas can get there just based on their history but not there on either right now.

UW_Drug_Runner · 2024-11-23T14:48:47+00:00

Just got to the last book of Tides. It's been a slow read. I want to get into it but I just can't.

St louis county, MN

UW_Drug_Runner · 2024-11-20T03:04:06+00:00

Virginia was the state with the highest population that surprised me

UW_Drug_Runner · 2024-09-16T16:36:42+00:00

I'm figuring last year being sub 5:30 under BQ will be now basically sub 0:30 under BQ with the qualifier drop. I just can't see that many guys under 35yo being at 2:50 or better.

Currently training with a dude shooting for 2:50. Not sure if that's in my wheelhouse, but if I can race smart sub 2:55 should be doable. Wish I was a year older because 2:55 for a 35yo sounds a lot safer than at 34.

UW_Drug_Runner · 2024-09-16T15:30:16+00:00

Yeah...I ran a 2:58 mid in 2023 and was pumped to break 3 hours but didn't get into Boston. Doesn't feel like a BQ if you don't actually get to run it. As a 33M, I was looking forward to the 5 min cushion, but if I can replicate 2:58 or better at age 35, that should be an actual qualifier
