Two more bronze medals tonight put us at 7 so far. Not too shabby! Brian picked up a bronze in the 200 free with a Phelps-style 15m underwater rocket launch on the last 50 to catch the field. And then in the most exciting race of the night (my opinion only) we won a bronze medal in the 4x100 medley relay! And we also broke the Canadian record by over a second. I almost went a best time in my 100 back lead out - just 5/100ths off that time I did in 1999. So if you haven't gone a best time in awhile... try 8 years! I'll get it soon I swear. But I'm very happy with the result and the medal. Annamay told us all right before the race "Let's rock this...." (she may have added another inappropriate word to the end of that, but this is a G-rated blog so I'll leave that to you to fill in the blanks). I guess that will have to be our new relay motto and share that secret with the boys relay tomorrow.
So just one more day - 10 sessions down and 2 to go! I've got the big 200 back tomorrow. I'm feeling great so far so hopefully tomorrow will the best yet.
And I know my captions are way off with the pics below, but I was getting kicked off the internet and now I can't be bothered to change them. Check out all the pics at www.freestylephotography.com

Awesome Kelly! I am so happy for you and the other three girls. Canadian record and pretty much a PB; fantastic!
Good luck today in the 200.
WOW! Best time in the 200. A well deserved holiday in Thailand should be on the agenda now. Have a wonderful time touring around and having fun. I found a place to live W 28th and Collingwood. It's going to be great.
Again, great job and congratulations to the entire team. Pretty decent medal tally.
