Flashback Friday – Remember When It Was Warm?

Several years of blogging have occurred at the Jersey Shore Swim blog with over 700 stories and articles posted.  With that in mind, the Jersey Shore Swim blog will occasionally pull out an occasional favorite or interesting item from the archives to share with readers (plus some interesting old stuff never posted) in a series called Flashback Friday.

It is pretty cold outside this week with snow and temperatures into the teens.  While the winter YMCA swim season is just about to start and high schools are gearing up for their first meets, many of us might be wishing for warmer times.  Well, you can go back to the hot, muggy days of this past July and look at all the great swims from the Greater Susquehanna Valley Aquatic League’s Championship meet (results here). 

In addition to reviewing some swimming times, the sequence pictures belowof Jersey Shore at Wellsboro might also get you thinking of warmer days. This meet was a close one.  The final score and age group scores can be found here, and swim times here. 

Swimmers started by sitting or standing on

the pool deck and a few brave ones tried the

dizzying heights of the starting block

Regardless of starting position, all swimmers made it

to the water for great swims

Write-up of this meet plus a few additional pictures can be found here.
