Baltimore, 2006.
6:29.7 @ 31 spm.
31 spm is not 30 spm and you were either a hwt... or you weighed in more than 2hrs before the contest.
Please....
I know... I've gone to Baltimore several times.. They have a history of assigning a pre-teen to do the weigh-in... as fast as people show up.
You know that. I know that.
This is not about me anyway; It's about you and 13 spi.
I have already done it.
So out-do it tomorrow then if you are "better"... and have promised
The tape and other records will show what you'll do tomorrow: It will not be both sub 6:40 and near 13 spi.
Your 2nd class performance tomorrow will indicate once again that you are not as fast as a Roy Brook (55-59 lwt) or a Brian Bailey (60-64 lwt).
I am quite amused by your banter about rate limiting your 2k at BIRC. It shows what a coward you are.
You have no intention of ever going for broke. You are fully trained right now. Your time tomorrow will probably be the fastest you can go. Future ones will most probably be slower. This is because you are aging. There's no shame there.
"much better than that now" is a troll brag... that is all.
Do me a favor. Graph all the 2ks you have done at venues on one axis and years on the other. Do you spot a trend?
You are getting slower like everyone else your age. IOW: You are not "much (faster=better) than that now"...
Sleep well, race well. I hope that Paul Wenham gives you a run for your money.
