Master Swim Meet

11/6/2015

0 Comments

 
So apparently I got shanghaied into swimming at a masters swim meet in Grand Forks, ND last weekend. I originally went along to take some photos and video of my wife swimming her 100 Butterfly, but before I knew it I was signed up to swim 7 events! So that was pretty fun, but it meant that I didn't get as many photos of the swimmers as I would have liked. Oh well, it was a really fun meet to swim anyways, especially since I literally hadn't been in a swimming pool in a year and a half. So that was rough, but I powered through it. 

Anyways, I got quite a few great photos of the masters swimmers, which I will now share here!

And Breaststroke too...

Also got quite a few nice photos of some of the masters swimmers from Grand Forks, I think they are called the Dakota Masters. Of course we have to start with butterfly photos!

And Freestyle. We even had people doing the 1500m free, which used to be my event (and the 1650y) but I guarantee I couldn't even get close to that now. So mad props to everyone who did the distance events.

And we even had a super boss guy who drove all the way down from Winnipeg to swim in the meet and go to Menards! So props to him too, since he did a really great job as well.

I'll finish off with a couple venue photos, because I actually really liked the pool there at UND. While the facility is a bit old, the water was really really nice. It just had a good feel too it that a lot of other nicer pools don't necessarily have.

Great job everyone, and if I missed a photo of you I am sorry! I tried, but since I was swimming I'm sure I missed a couple people. I ended up swimming the 50 free, 50 back, 50 fly, 100 back, and in the 200 free relay, 200 medley relay, and 200 mixed medley relay. So a lot for someone who hasn't swam in a while. Here I am still a bit sore in my traps and hips 5 days later...

Thanks for looking! And thanks to Dakota Masters for hosting a great meet!

All images taken with my Nikon D4s and 70-200 f/2.8G VR 2 if anyone was wondering. It was super nice to get to take some swimming photos again, as it has been a while.
