Why do I think this will be hard to do? Haha. Because otherwise you wouldn't ask. I'm going to say he's about...12. (Not sure where there age group divisions are based on age...)

Any guesses on time for 100 yard fly? Sorry Sprinter... you're going to have to do some conversion. :)

Responded Apr 01, 2011 01:01PM

This is a tough question. I don't think in yards... Can I guess the 100m one? I would say... 52 flat.

Responded Apr 01, 2011 01:03PM

Age group 15?

Responded Apr 01, 2011 01:12PM

Breathing nice and low too. I'd say about 14 and 51.21

Responded Apr 01, 2011 01:34PM

I'd say 14 years and 56.08 for 100 yards fly.

Responded Apr 02, 2011 04:36PM

Responded Apr 03, 2011 04:17AM

Correction, he's now 15, and 48.3.

Responded Apr 05, 2011 08:05AM

And the winner is?

Responded Apr 05, 2011 04:28PM

Nice job Wonderboy... you DID win again. :) The good news is, he's a great kid too.

Responded Apr 06, 2011 07:41AM

No no no, half of the win is mine. Wonderboy needs to share couse he copied the age guess from me. :P

Responded Apr 06, 2011 10:50AM

Or me, but I guess it's always easier when you don't have to convert metres to yards! Quick swimmer, nice kid, Glenn, a winning combination!

Responded Apr 06, 2011 06:33PM

Ahh... lost it again... last place .. looking forward for another try. sprinter... where are you on your profile picture? looks like you were too fast!..

Responded Apr 06, 2011 06:38PM

Actually it does look like a few get at least a piece of the prize, but wonderboy really nailed it with just a touch of research. :) The swimmer did just turn 15 and continued to improve which is cool stuff.

Responded Apr 07, 2011 09:32AM

Reasearch is cheating! You asked us to guess, not to research ;). (what was that article about listening AND hearing? ) *just joking, have too much energy again hehe*

Responded Apr 07, 2011 03:07PM
