Fellow backstroker! Haha. I love back and fly, and I'm always forced to do IMs even though my breaststroke is horrible. D:

Same here! My breaststroke might not actually be that bad, but i only do it in the IM and by the time it comes around I am seriously just debating walking the rest of the way, so it looks really bad XD

Mine stinks... horribly. xD So in an IM, I have to really sprint that backstroke if I want to be first. xD Usually I'm dead after that, but somehow I manage to place nicely. XD And have you ever had people at the end of your lane screaming at you? Haha, once I had almost the entire girl's team at my lane screaming at me. And this one girl threatened to beat me up if I didn't get first. XD I'm glad I got first or who knows what would have happened to me.

OH MY GOSH I think it is so funny when people are screaming at you from the other end! Sometimes I will be doing backstroke and I do my flipturn and I can see them and I cannot help but laugh. Then they yell out STOP SMILING, but I can't help it! All of the 13-plus people on our our team are all really supportive of each other, so thats nice. We are also supportive of the little kids but there are so many of them we can't remember all of their names! Anyway I am also glad you got first! That would be depressing if you didnt! haha XD

Bahaha. XD It's horrifying for me because it makes me think about winning, and when I think I usually slow down. xD I always cheer for the little ones. I might be a captain this year though, so I might not be able to do that anymore. :C

Yeah, same here. Thinking while I swim usually makes my form go haywire haha Being captain is cool though, even if you can't cheer for the cute little kiddies

Yeah, but being a captain requires organization and patience. I'm not gifted with either of those.
