British Olympic Trials start today

I'm so excited for the Olympics, only 5 months away. The British Olympic trials start today.

Results can be found here: http://www.swimmingresults.org.uk/swimming/results/2012/bstrials12/index.php

The meet is being held in the Olympic pool, which is awesome. Qualifying for the British Olympic Team is a bit different from the U.S. According to the article linked below, not only does a swimmer have to finish 1st or 2nd at the meet, but he/she also has to have a time that is top 16 in the world. If a swimmer finishes in the top 2 but the time isn't fast enough, there will be another opportunity to qualify at a later meet.

The meet is open to foreign swimmers who want to check out the Olympic pool. I will try to post results.
