Having been burned in the past with swims that end up not counting for Top 10 consideration, I have some questions about a meet this Sunday that I am thinking about going to: www.usms.org/.../event.php
First, they do have timing pads, but I heard that these may not be working. If they have to do hand timing, does that mean times won't count for TT consideration?
Second, the final event of the day is the 400 Free/IM, with each swimmer picking one or the other (you can't do both). If I sign up for the 400 free and someone is swimming the 400 IM in the same heat, are the times invalid for TT consideration? (I made the mistake last year of swimming several events in the "Open" category and none of them counted officially.)
Thanks! This is one of the few LCM meets I can actually drive to, but I don't want to waste the gas money if it's going to be all for naught!
Jim based on my past experience with the Top 10, it's my opinion that your times will only count in Canada!:canada:
To make the Canadian Top 10, and join that long list of inspirational Sasquatch, hosers, and beaver-trappers, eh, has been my ambition for longer than I can remember. If only my times would count up there!
If I can remember correctly, the UMBC LCM Meet had touchpads. It just didn't have a working scoreboard.
Are you going? I did sign up last night and hope the meet doesn't get stopped because of the 96 degree heat and predicted thunderstorms!
