<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-size: 12px; line-height: 17px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">We're sorry to see Tim leave for his new 15 lane pool in NJ but he will have to leave West Neck Beach behind! Along with a lot of good memories and a whole bunch of friends. And a lot of those "old" friends showed up at Meehan's on Tuesday, November 24, 2015 to hoist a pint or two in Tim's honor. </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-size: 12px; line-height: 17px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But, don't be surprised if Tim finds his way back for a swim or two. He and Leslie are just moving to New Jersey -- that's on the other side of the Hudson, not the other side of the Mississippi!</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Wednesday night in Huntington found a few (Pod Size Group) of area swimmers and triathletes at <b>Finley's</b> on Greene Street to celebrate Tax Day. No, NO! It wasn't a tax day party, it was to say "<i>Congratulations</i>". "<i>Best Wishes</i>" etc to <b>Katy</b>, sandwiched between <b>Margot</b> and <b>Erin</b>. Katy will be getting married next month!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">To get <b>Katy</b> to Finley's, unaware, she was told it was for my birthday which is also just around the corner. BTW, thanks for the "<i>Happy Birthday</i>" song. Sad to say, it was easy to tell we were out with swimmers and not professional singers! Though I'm pretty sure Katy enjoyed her song, "<i><b>Here Comes the Bride</b></i>" even if NOBODY knew what came after "<i>all dressed in white</i>".</span><br />

Though, I must confess that I thought it would be even busier than it was since the Y will be closed for Easter, Have a great holiday and we'll see you back in the pool on Monday morning!Mike Engelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08269833603857478461noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7669386.post-49974817395598041332015-02-01T17:40:00.000-05:002015-02-01T17:40:03.352-05:00Sunday Swim, February 1, 2015: MORE 100's by 100<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And, they're off! And if this is Sunday, it must be another <b>One Hundred 100's</b>. It was... <b>Sal</b> missed last week and it didn't take much to talk <b>Paul</b> into doing a repeat. Though the picture below might show just a bit of physical coercion... or was <b>Sal</b> just flexing?? He may have been putting up a bit too many TBT pictures on FaceBook this week. Yeah, when you're 18, you don't even have to flex, <i>it just comes naturally!</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><b><i>One Hundred 100's, One Hundred 100's</i></b>... it rolls so easily off the tongue but not so easily off those aching shoulders. The only two who managed the feat this January on Sunday, January 25, 2015 were <b>Tim</b> and <b>Paul</b> (pictured below). Though I suspect their shoulders weren't all that achy as they were back in the pool Monday morning for a more normal 4,000 yard workout. <b>Congratulations to both Tim and Paul</b> who may be doing a repeat sooner then expected as <b>Sal</b> was not available and he is the guy who started this whole One Hundred 100's at the Huntington YMCA.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If its the week between Christmas and New Year's, it's time for our <b>annual Water Polo "<i>shoot-around</i>"</b>. We really didn't have enough players show up for a "<i>real</i>" match but the action was still tiring. Just ask <b>Don</b> who was at the Y earlier for the 6:30AM workout (3,000 plus yards), then went for a 5 mile run and then at noon, came back to the Y for an hour of water polo. <b>I guess somebody's due for a good sleep tonight!</b> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Thanks again to the Y and especially <b>Bob Miller</b> -- not only for setting it up but for showing up while still recovering from this cough/fever thing that seems to be going around. Believe me, I know how it can put you down for the count as I missed almost 10 days of swimming just a few days before Christmas. My advice, don't get it, enjoy the polo pictures and we'll <b>see you next year for the 2015 edition of Water Polo!</b></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This inspirational slogan greeted us at the entrance to the <b>Huntington YMCA</b> Strength Training Center this morning: "<i><b>The victory is not always to the swift, but to those who keep moving!</b></i>"</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I don't seem to be getting any faster as the decades go by (<i>slower, in fact, if one was to be totally honest)</i>, I take great comfort in just keeping moving! So, what are you waiting for... <b>get up and start moving!</b></span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Franklin, who won five medals and four golds in 2012, trained with 2004 and 2008 Olympian <strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Kara Lynn Joyce </strong>in the run-up to the London Games. Joyce, a four-time Olympic relay silver medalist, also made the London Olympic team and did not reach the semifinals of her only event, the 50m freestyle.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The book title says SUMMER. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The calendar says SPRING. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">And the weather forecast and actual temperature shouted WINTER! </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Last night, when we were threatened with several inches of snow, (<i>we actually got none!</i>), we had a wonderfully warm and snow-free Book Launch at <b>Book Revue</b> in Huntington for <b>Gae's</b> newest book, "<b><i>The Summer Of Letting Go</i></b>".</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Surrounded by family, friends, fans and f<b>ellow swimmers</b>, <b>Gae</b> gave a terrific introduction to her newest YA creation. She included a Q&A and a 10 minute reading from <b><a href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Summer-Letting-Gae-Polisner/dp/1616202564" target="_blank">THE SUMMER OF LETTING GO</a></b>. After the reading, <b>Yolanda</b> leaned over to me and whispered, "<i>I wonder if it comes in a Kindle edition?</i>" It does! So <b>Gae</b>, <b><i>you can count on at least one Kindle sale!</i></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The rest of you will have to get your own copy. I'm sure <b>Gae</b> will be happy to autograph it for you at <b>West Neck Beach</b> after one of our <b>Open Water Swims</b>. Warmer weather is on the way... till then, <i>see you in the pool!</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><u>March 1, 2014: Huntington NY</u>. The sun is already up but the temperature outside certainly wasn't! But, we were lucky to be able to drive to the pool without worrying about snow on the roads -- we'll have that in another 36 hours or so as the forecast is for another Winter Snow Storm. <b><i>Will Open Water Swimming EVER get here this year?</i></b> I don't know about you, but I think it's been unusually cold and snowy winter! </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My thanks to <b>Paval</b> for taking the picture above and below so I could actually be in a photo. I need to do a brief explanation of the picture below. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">As I was watching <b>Paval</b> take the picture above, I noted that he pushed the camera down as he clicked the shutter. <i>Who knew that the camera was smart enough to self-correct and get a relatively in-focus photo?</i> I didn't! And in the picture <b>Paval</b> snapped below, I was attempting to show him how to <u>gently</u> push down on the shutter without jerking the camera. He caught me and I guess that I will now have to admit to my wife that "<i>Yes, I sometimes am a bit of a control freak</i>".</span><br />
