After just swimming a rockin 35+ (even if we are all older than 42) 400 medley relay, I notice that all of the relays at the nationals are sprint. Why is that? Does anyone have any historical perspective? Is it all because of the time line?
Why not run, for example, the 200 free and 400 medley relay one year, and the 400 free and 200 medley relay the next?
And what about an 800 free relay?
Orlando LCM in 1997 offered 400 and 800 relays. The meet also allowed distance swimmers to enter both the 800 and 1500 free. It was a very well run meet.
