I Like Watching The Olympics

I ran in the 1924 New Zealand Olympics in Scotland. 100m backstroke.

@JennaBug *rubs eyes* 👀
I could just mix up the form. There is no way people will notice that. Only you'll be 1st now and 4th next year.

@Classified No. Next years race has already been run. I didn't enter because it will be held in Paris, Japan and I couldn't afford the airfares on the boat. Luckily though, I came in 5th, just behind the loser and won the race. I'm really sorry I couldn't run because it was the best swim of the meet. But I'm hoping to qualify for the next race last month.

@JennaBug You're way better at this than I. 😜
The qualification for last month's race is in three weeks. That means you still have a half year to train. Make sure you don't finish before 3rd place otherwise you can never win.

Both lengths were uphill if I remember

@JennaBug it was great conditions for you.

No the conditions were terrible... the best I ever had. I hated it so much that I had the best time ever.

@JennaBug yes, and the overflow crowd in the half empty stadium went wild at the end of the race when it started

@1stexhub Yeah when the sun finally came out at 2:13am it burned lots of people really bad. My dad drove me there too. It's a shame he had to stay home and didn't see me run in person, but when I came out of the pool he was the first person to congratulate me
I'm supporting you in the 1972 world championships!

@Itsmrsockmonkey Thanks. It was meant to be held in 1987, but it rained that day so they postponed it for 2 weeks to 1972. Apparently it will be a lovely day that night. Though some remember it as being cold. I think it will be just right.
