Pah, 200 IM and not one of them a Norseman.

We all know that 1 Norseman is equivalent to 150 normal IM so come back after 300 and you might get some kudos from me.

TFIC :grinning:

Well done TC - superb work. You’ve also had the occasional significant injury in between all these finishes if I’m not mistaken.

and @pacha Outlaw 2019 is Very dodgy obvs! At best you’d call it the IM Event that was placed in front of you! at least we had a Sunday morning parkRace in 2024! Double shame as it was actually a fab perfect morning for a swimble, yes, not often I say that!!

See if I can atone for it at Brutal Double Extreme IM on Sat. Did I mention I’m defending Champion!

Quite clear we’re not reaching 200 between us, barely 100! A phenomenal achievement :exploding_head:

Says a lot than I thought the title referred to who here has swam a 200m Individual Medley. If long course (50m pool) can’t be that many

I’ve done a 200IM race four times short course (over a 13 year period) but never long course. Might try one next year!

400IM long course, :skull_and_crossbones:

Never! One of my teammates attempted that at BUSA champs one year and fell apart before the end of the fly - was painful to watch the next 300m!

Well done TC.

I can hand the white coat award back now.

I’m “only” on 40 finishes to add in to the total

Me too. Came past me squeaking like a good un at Eastnor Castle middle distance… circa 2002?

I think yours is the 2009 model.
Mine was a 2008 (the white one), but alas is now retired due to a massive crack in the frame

Id pay good money to see T_C attempt one of those, but I suspect he’d be DQ’d within 25m of Fly :rofl:

Just had a look and your race number was a sign of things to come

Sums up my IM career in 1 sentence

I lurked on here when I started doing tri’s in 2011 but it wasn’t until I did my first IM (Wales in 2014, you must have loved that swim) that I came across TC in those shorts. Saw the shorts (going past me) at various races since and I do now give a shout out and we had a chat at Steelman this year.

9 for me and hopefully into double figures next year.
