I was planning out my racing season and noticed that LC Nats at Auburn are Wed. 8/3 to Sat. 8/6. This is correct? It's unusual to have Nationals not utilize both Sat. and Sun. to minimize lost work time for swimmers.
I heard that the 2011 Open Water Nationals will be on Sunday... If so that will be a long week I am planning on racing the 50, 100, 200, 400, and 1.5k swims
There are plans for an open water event on Sunday but it isn't an Open Water National Championship.
Attached to this post are the NQTs for Auburn. They will later appear on the official meet page, but you can get a preview of them now. They are based on a three year average of the fifth place time from USMS Top Ten (from 2008, 2009, 2010 LCM seasons). The NQTs are 15% slower than those average 5th place times.
