Hi, i'm new to USMS and have been swimming 2-3 time per week for about 4 weeks. Usually doing between 3500 and 5Km. I just signed up for my first meet since high school. I'll be swimming in the Gil Young Memorial/Northwest Zone LCM Meet. I would love some pionters or any advice anyone has. I'm excited, but also a bit nervous. I'll be swimming the following events:
50Br
200Fr
100Br
50Fl
and maybe the 800Fr (this is the last event of the day and I'm not sure if i'll have enough left to do this one) :)
Have fun at the meet and don't worry about the 800. After the rest of your events, it is a warmdown that can score points.
I won't be at the meet, but you can look for me anyway. I'm the one who looks like I have been cleaning fish all day.
I love relays (record setting or not) and will never understand anyone who won't swim them. In fact, I am going to a relay meet this weekend.
If they won't allow chairs on the deck, bring a couch.
Good luck!
