The IV Panamerican Master Championships starts next Tuesday, Nov. 8th, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This time it will have, besides swimming (pool and open water), also diving, synchronized swimming and water polo competitions.
Total number of registered competitors up to 2500 of which 1656 in swimming (919 from Brazil, 178 from Argentina and also 47 from the USA).
This is the largest Panamerican event up to now, and one of the largest ever held in the Americas (with the exception of the FINA World Championships)
Next one, the V Panamerican competition is scheduled for 2013 in Sarasota, FL.
I was just going to email my times and a link, to our DV Top 10 guy. The Pan Am times will be listed for the 2012 season I think, so there is plenty of time. I think somewhere in those PDF files is a list of swimmers by country. Could you copy that list and go through the results and run a program that can find their name on the results documents? I think there were 45 Americans at the Pan Ams. Many of us know each other. I know the guys in my age group, Martin, Walker, Miller, Sicard just for starters. It shouldn't be too hard to figure it out, even if you have to do it manually.
