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.
Attached is the estimated timeline. We used historical scratch rates to "guess" the number of swimmers in the 800/1500 and 400 IM. Being off by just one heat in the 1500 can obviously make a big difference so just take this as a guide.

I notice that there are separate start times for the women's and the men's distance events. Does this mean that the heats will not be mixed? I actually hope that they are, as I really don't want to be in the heat I will likely be in for the 800 if the women and men swim separately... :afraid:
Can't wait! Should be fun!
