Minnesota Grand Prix - Saturday Finals Results & Sunday Prelims
Saturday Finals
Ryan placed 1st in the 100y back with a time of 46.42 and 3rd in the 50y free with a time of 19.94. Here's what swimmingworldmagazine.com had to say about the races:

Men's 100 Back
Ryan Lochte exploded on the third 25 to overtake Minnetonka's David Plummer, this year's long course national champion. Lochte, swimming unattached for Gator Swim Club, posted a time of 46.42 to earn his first win of the weekend. His time fell well short of his 2006 American record of 44.60. Plummer, meanwhile, posted a 46.72, a few hundredths shy of his lifetime best of 46.65. Longhorn's Ricky Berens' streak of wins at this meet came to an end, but he used a strong final length to pull away from the pack and earn third in 47.34.
Men's 50 Free
Tucson Ford's Simon Burnett showed off outstanding speed in the men's splash-and-dash, winning in a fast time of 19.52. Burnett jumped in front early in the race and held off charges from Club Wolverine's Bobby Savulich and superstar Ryan Lochte. Savulich took second in 19.85, edging Lochte's third-place time of 19.94.
Sunday Prelims
Ryan is competing in the following events on Sunday:
Event 25 - 200y IM
Event 27 - 200y back
Event 29 - 100y free
Don't be surprised if one of these events is scratched. Looking forward to seeing the races. Watch live in www.swimnetwork.com. Hopefully they will figure out a way to broadcast both the men's and the women's prelims even if they both take place at the same time in adjoining pools.

Results from Sunday - Florida Sr. Spring Championships
Today was the last day of the Florida Sr. Spring Championships and Ryan won both of his events, 100y free & 200y back. Here are his times:
100y free - 44.19 (prelims) & 43.82 (finals)
200y back - 1:43.59 (prelims) & 1:41.87 (finals)
Ryan swam both of these events a little faster last year, 43.73 in the 100 free and 1:41.02 in the 200 back. He's not far off of where he was last year though and I'm hoping that means his injury is healing well.
I'm going to the Austin Grand Prix next Friday night (March 5). It will be the first time I see Olympians and National Team swimmers race in person. Will give a full report here.

Florida Spring Championships - 3/1 Finals; Austin Grand Prix
In Sunday's finals, Ryan came in first in both of his events:
100y Free - 43.73 (splits 20.63, 23.10)
200y Back - 1:41.02 (splits 23.80, 25.43, 25.58, 26.21)
It seems as though Ryan took it kind of easy today, but still won his races, which is always a good thing.
The swimmers participating in the Austin Grand Prix from March 5-7, 2009 have been announced, and Ryan is not one of them. I don't know when Ryan will be swimming next, but the Grand Prix does not have another event until the Charlotte Ultra Swim on May 14-17. It has already been announced that Michael Phelps will return to competition in Charlotte, so I hope Ryan will be there as well.
From what I've heard, this is the time of year when swimmers train the hardest, including high altitude training. It may be a while before Ryan races again.
Here's a link to a video someone put on youtube of Ryan's 100y Back race yesterday at the Florida Senior Spring Championships. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Vmi_Ev6Hp8

More on the So Cal Grand Prix - 100y free and 200y back results
Great news, lenaorgana (Lisa) from The Daily Reezy met Ryan and Gold Medal Mel at the meet yesterday and she posted a detailed account of her experience at The Daily Reezy website. In addition to speaking with Ryan, she took some photos and videos and also appeared in a video with Ryan that was shot by GMM. I can't wait to see that.
Also, Lisa Dillman of the L.A. Times interviewed Ryan about his future swimming plans and wrote an article about it. The article is very informative and will be covered in a separate post. http://www.latimes.com/sports/la-sp-swim18-2009jan18,0,6794892.story
Given the overall Grand Prix results yesterday and Ryan's times specifically, it appears that Ryan and most of the swimmers are tired. I've read that swimmers do some of their toughest training over the holidays, and this is probably why the times are generally higher than usual.
A notable exception was Mary Descenza breaking the American record in the 200y fly and nearly breaking it in the 200y back. That is quite an amazing accomplishment, not only given the time of the year, but also because swimming those two extremely difficult events back to back and doing so well is unbelievable. Mary is an amazing swimmer and her accomplishments deserve attention. Hopefully she will continue to do well and qualify for the world championships in Rome. It's a shame that she never made the Olympic team.
Ryan's time in the 100y free was 43.18, which placed him first in the "B" final by nearly 1.5 seconds and would have placed him third in the "A" final had he done better in the prelims. Lisa Dillman wrote the following about Ryan's 100y free performance:
That led to a particularly painful opening race Saturday, the "A" consolation final of the 100 freestyle. His time was 43.18 seconds."Let's just leave that out," he said, smiling. "The 100 free, let's just say I was in so much pain. I've never felt that bad before."
The official results for the 200y back were not available at http://www.socalswim.org/, but swimnetwork.com had the following information:
Olympic gold medalist Ryan Lochte (Daytona Beach, Fla.) also had a strong night Saturday, setting a meet record in the 200y back in 1:39.01. Olympic silver medalist Matt Grevers (Lake Forest, Ill.) was second in 1:40.42 and Adam Ritter (Reynoldsburg, Ohio) was third in 1:44.41.
Ryan broke the meet record in the 200 back. It's a nice accomplishment, although I'm sure he does not care about this one bit because his time was 3 seconds off his American record.
Swimnetwork.com also has videos of the individual races, which can be seen here:
http://www.swimnetwork.com/videos/v/20090118/2009_southern_california_grand_prix_of_swimming___men_s_200yd_backstroke___a_final-16087.html
As for the type of suit Ryan was wearing, Lisa at Daily Reezy told me he was wearing a regular speedo in the prelims and had some type of long legs-only suit on during the finals. In the videos, it doesn't look like a Speedo LZR. Ryan may be trying out a different brand of fast suit or it could be a different type of Speedo that I don't know anything about.

FINALS - 100 free and 200 back - So Cal Grand Prix
Ryan finished first in the consolation final of the 100 free with a time that would have placed him 3rd overall had he made the championship final.
Ryan placed first in the 200 back. :))
I'll add more information tomorrow, including Ryan's times and the kind of suit he was wearing. Hopefully swimnetwork.com will have videos of the races. I heard GMM was at the meet, which should mean more videos and insider information! A couple of people from Daily Reezy went too so that should mean photos.

I think Ryan is tired. It's just the prelims, but he swam more than 2.6 seconds slower than his personal best and did not make the A final. From his splits, both his 50s were slower than the top 8, so it's not like he went out too fast and burned out. This is why I think he is tired.
Of course it also depends on what kind of a suit Ryan was wearing.
