Senior Championships in Orlando Florida this weekend

It's back to the Orlando YMCA this weekend for the Florida Senior Championships, a meet Ryan always attends.  Unlike the Orlando Grand Prix, this meet will be in short course yards not meters.  It's also partially an age group meet, so there are separate heats for Boys and Girls age 14-16 and Men's and Women's (age 17 and above).

I've never been to the Orlando YMCA but it always seems so dark in the pool area.  It probably just appears that way in photos and videos.

The meet takes place from February 21-24, but the first day is for the 1000 yard free and the 800 free relays only.  Ryan will be swimming on February 22-24.

You can watch the finals live at Florida Swim Network at 5:30 p.m. EST each day.  This is really great, because in the past it has been really difficult to find information about this meet, much less see the action live!
