"Wish you were all going to be there!"
I know for myself, on a coaches salary, I can't go to every nationals.
But I am a bit of a swim meet geek...
And I would always go if possible, just because its' our USMS National Championships.
You know... in support of my sport.
In theory, I'd like to go to every nationals to compete and support my sport too!! In reality, like Patrick, it is difficult for me to get away for 4-5 days. Once a year or every other year is about it for me for awhile. So I attend mostly local meets or do quickie getaways. I'm sure Clovis will host a fabulous meet with loads of fast swimming.
Does anyone really expect to be pleased about meet locations all the time? I wouldn't think so ... And deciding which meet(s) to attend is just dependent on so many individual factors. (Like my own inability to tolerate the pollen and strange vegetation on the west coast ... :D)
