I was happy the pool was uncrowded and I had my own lane. Instead of the usual noodlers or occasional masters swimmer, there were college kids in many of the other lanes. I felt sloggish at first, but put in some fast times. I need to go through some of my past tapers and formulate a plan for the next two weeks. All I did this first week of taper was drop drylands. I hope some more folks sign up for NE Champs. Right now there are only 250+ as contrasted with 540+ at Long Beach on the left coast. Registration doesn't close until Dec. 3, however, so I'm sure more will sign up. And I wouldn't want to be swimming at LB with the 50 back and 100 IM the dead last two events of a 3 day meet.

Hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving. Mine was super relaxing.
