I was just looking over the schedule for long course nationals in Auburn, AL and I see the 800 and 1500 are on the same day, as were the 1000 & mile in Mesa. Please have one race at the beginning of the meet and one at the end of the meet so distance swimmers can do all their races, thanks!
i can't find numbers for 2002, 2003, 2010 or 2011, but based on the 7 years listed, you can't even begin to compare Y nats to USMS nats. i think a closer comparison would be Y nats to new england's LMSC champs. and they swim their distance events on a completely different weekend than the rest of the meet.
And NE LMSC Champs you have to choose between the 1650 and the 1000. And since it's a seperate Saturday it make tappering difficult. This year I skipped tappering for this meet and tappered for nationals instead.
Because of this I brook it into to distance seasons, the first half was my 1650 season, with NE LMSC Champs being my last 1650, then I took my 1000 split from that and used it to enter Nationals and then swam my only the 1000 after that.
But I would rather swim both at NE LMSC Champs and SCY Nationals. I'm better at the longer distances but instead I end up swimming the 100 and 200 free at these meets. Maybe if they'd let us swim both, there would be less in other events.
