Swimming World Cup in Eriksdalsbadet 10-11 November 2009
"It is free!", my wife told me on the phone. "What is?", I asked. "The entrance to Swimming World Cup. let's go". So we went. Of course it was not free, it was 150 SEK per person; the trials were free but not the finals... Anyhow, Silvia managed to get in backstage, talked with some friends in the Brazilian team and got back with some VIP-passes. Nicely done!
It was fun to be there but hard to see any of the action, I guess you need to be by the side of the pool (or in it, with scuba gear!) to be able to see exactly what is happening. Some world records were broken and when that happened the crowd went crazy. Each world record has a 10.000 USD bonus and a Brazilian, Kaio Almeida won 20.000 USD yesterday. Congratulations. Maybe I should push my kids to take up swimming? Golf and tennis seem to pay off better though.
It was also fun to see the stars live, the ones you only see on TV normally; Therese Alshammar, Stefan Nystrand, Michael Phelps (he looked kind of tiny actually) and Fabiola Molina. Fabiola and Silvia swam together in the end of the 90's. Silvia gave up swimming but Fabiola continued and made a career out of it. We met with her after the competition and it is incredible the amount of time and dedication she puts into swimming; about five hours of training per day! Amazing. It helps that her husband is an elite swimmer also (Silvia and I do things together as well, we play Xbox 360 for example). Fabiola fought for Brazil in the Olympics, both in Sydney 2000 and in Beijing 2008.
The pools has 25-meter lanes
A lot of people in the stands
"These inflatable things are fun but do they have to be in my face all the time?"
