We (UV Rays) had a fun time at the New England Masters Short Course Yards Championships at Harvard last weekend. This photo was taken of a swimmer in the warm up lanes close to where our team camped out. The highlight of my weekend was not my swimming, but a leisurely Sunday breakfast with our coach and a coach of a local Ivy league school...

I was there, the pic is from the SCY master's meet at Harvard last week. I did OK in my 50 fly (ok for me), 34 sec and some change. Better than last year. Plus, my team, Maine Masters, did well too. A lot of great swims, like Mike Ross, fellow teammate 50 back at 23.24. Crazy fast!

Tomas, this is the Blodgett Pool at Harvard University in Boston, MA. It is 25yds x 50m. The photo was taken in the 50m direction.
There were some incredibly fast swimmers at the meet! A very humbling experience for me...

Thank you Rick and I hope your swimming keeps improving.

Zoomed in to count lane-lines Tomas? :) That would be some careful counting.
