Not quite (28.21), bit of a shame!

You want to try doing a SC 1500 in there..30 turns on the damn thing.
Yeah appeared kind of like an optical illusion to me, it just appears from nowhere if you swim head down. Worse at speed.

1500? Think I need a lie down ...

I found this I slowed down on the 50 (ok you shouldn't technically slow into the turn I know) as I thought I was near the wall and I was no where near, so I had to swim with my head up a bit. I blame the boom!

Well run meet.

Shame there was no access to a swim down pool, but I guess that's only minor detail.

Hope everyone swam well, I know members of our team did.

I really enjoyed this meet swam crap but reckon I've added about 800 - 1000 points to my decathlon total, should make the top 50 and might just break into the top 30.

Cant remember the last time I went to a swim meet and didn't swim a breaststroke event!
Thanks to Phil and his team
