One woman made reservations, then canceled and gave hers to another swimmer but she also told the coach she cancelled and the coach gave her slot to another swimmer. I walked in seconds before the group dove in and nearly didn't have a lane. Which would have sucked because my wife came with me 40 miles from Martindale. 0100 0:01:13.9 0200 0:02:33.5 1:19.6 0400 0:05:16.2 0500 0:06:36.8 0800 0:10:35.7 5:19.50 1000 0:13:14.7 1200 0:15:52.5 5:16.8 1500 0:19:49.8 1600 0:21:08.7 5:16.2 2000 0:26:23.7 5:15.0 2400 0:31:40.7 5:17.0 2500 0:33:01.3 2800 0:36:54.8 5:14.1 3000 0:39:31.8 19:42.0 3200 0:42:09.1 5:14.3 3500 0:46:05.9 3600 0:47:25.3 5:16.2 4000 0:52:41.7 5:16.4 4400 0:57:57.7 5:16.0 4500 0:59:16.7 1:19.0 19:44.90 4600 1:00:35.1 1:18.4 4700 1:01:50.7 1:15.6 4800 1:03:08.8 1:18.1 5:11.1 4900 1:04:26.8 1:18.0 5000 1:05:44.2 1:17.4 5:09.1 (last 400) 19:21.70 (last 1500) I just swam the whole thing, long steady and slightly uncomfortable.
