So, my 2017 Summer Nationals performance was OK, but left room for improvement and I'm thinking about planning to start training for 2018 Long Course Summer Nationals.
Oops, there is no USMS Summer Nationals in 2018, in deference to the UANA Pan American Masters Championships.
I cannot find any information about if we can participate, how one qualifies, if we have to join UANA, etc., etc.
I've checked the UANA site, the Orlando YMCA site, USMS site with no luck.
Does anyone have any information about the event and whether those of us who were expecting a USMS Summer Nationals can plan to swim at the UANA Championships?
I was looking at the UANA Pan American Championship website to get the schedule of events for swimming. If you click on Swimming at the top of the home page and then scroll down, you see the schedule of events. The dates listed on the USMS website and the dates listed on the UANA website do not include August 4th. On August 4th they have the 100 *** and 400 free. Open Water is August 5th. So the dates for swimming on our calendar should be July 28 - August 4 (not August 3). Date for Open Water August 5th with warmup August 4th. Event limit is 5 events, plus Open Water and relays.
