I just swam in a local masters meet that had 31 events.
Warmup at 7 am - the 500 at 8am & then the rest of the meet at 9 am till about 3 pm.
Is this typical for meets around the country?
All strokes had 50 - 100 - 200 distances including the 100 - 200 - 400 IM.
7 relays as well.
Many swimmers had left the meet by 1:30 or so.
Each event had a male & a female race in each event.
Any ideas as how to shorten the time line of this meet?
I think they will lose entries for next year due to the length of this meet.
This is just silly. If the meet is too long, just enter events in the first half of the program. I do this all the time.
