Has the Championship Committee, or other entity within USMS ever discussed having a more strict policy of enforcement in regards to the NQT's?
Why do we state that you must have 3 cuts, in order to swim more events? Why not require a swimmer to have 6 cuts in order to swim 6 events?
Just like to understand more from a historical point of view. I have read post that asked, or suggested how to control the size and length of the National meets. Would not having a stricter enforcement of this policy help? Or would it cause swimmers to shy away from these meets?
Just a curious thought.
Thank you.
Paul,
You have an unnatural fascination with full body swim suits. Yes, I bought a shoulders to knees Speedo at the end of Seattle LCN's, and it has been my competition suit (pool and open water, including the Big Shoulders swim in Lake Michigan, thank you very much) ever since. Results? A meet record in the 200m fly, a PR in the 50m fly, masters best times in the 200m, 500y and 1650y free, and a 5k open water time (fresh water no less!) that still boggles my imagination.
