Let’s Hear It For The GIRLS!
I know that I totally aged myself with the post title, yet most of you probably won’t make the connection. And that will age me even more…
In any case, we here at the Swim Aids are very big on the Swim Chicks and they were in full effect over the weekend breaking records and posting best times.
Last week, our fave coach tipped me to some fast swimming in Maryland. He also rubbed salt in the wound since I wasn’t covering the meet in person. Paul, I’m going to need you to cover my airfare and offer me your couch if you want me to cover NBAC meet in person. Just sayin’
So, this post is dedicated to Katie Hoff, Felicia Lee, and Kate Ziegler. We are very impressed, but not surprised. You girls rock!
The Hoff broke 4 American Records and 1 individual NAG record, in addition to swimming on a NAG-breaking relay too. Flee put up 6 (yes, 6!!) best times throughout the meet, plus the same relay as the Hoff that broke a 15-18 NAG record. Kate Z. was swimming at the Tom Dolan Invite and battling The Hoff in many of the same events. In fact, we’ve heard that prior to Katie’s 500y Free American Record at the NBAC meet, Kate had broken it just a short while before; in the same night! Now that’s some fast swimming goin’ on! Earlier in the weekend, Kate had already broken the 1650y Free American Record.
O/T: For those of you who didn’t pick up on my opening thought, this might help. Now how many of you knew that was what I was referring to? Yea, that’s what I thought! I miss the 80s.

A.) So glad you posted about the rockstar trio. They had amazing swims and I’m so happy for them. B.)Couch? And that is all I am saying. C.) I KNOW THAT SONG! I had this phase in my life were I had to watch Footloose at least three times a week AND listen to the soundtrack. That song is my second favorite on the track! So don’t feel so bad!
hahah about the title.
the girls kicked ass this past weekend. amazzzzing! 6 best times for Flee! Awesome. Katie and Kate with all those records. Fabulous!
Stupid school keeping me from attending swim meets =(
We all know that Erika knows the song, but that’s just because I’m the shit. (Oh, and an 80’s whore, but that’s besides the point.)
