2014 Spring and Summer Nationals

That would get my vote, it is a rule that never made sense to me.I agree with Chris on this one; seems like a strange rule.

From the pic, it looks as if it is only one pool? Am I missing something? Yes, it's a short course meet and the pool is 50 meters long, so they can have two (25 yard) courses with a bulkhead. Also it was mentioned there's also an indoor 50 m pool in the same complex.

Thanks, Jim. Any idea when the MD schedule will be announced? They have been posted on the Nationals forum. Here is a direct link to the post/thread: forums.usms.org/showthread.php Jeff

Just signed up for Santa Clara! I can't wait to see all of you there.

After the latest hip operation -- no Nats for me this year. Bummer!

Any update on the actual schedule for Summer Nats in MD? I am local to the event and may have to work part of a day and then go to the pool to swim. I can't just hang around all day. I am burning up my vacation time at Worlds in Montreal the week before. So I need to know the estimated start times for each event. This affects what I sign up for and the deadline is coming soon. Any suggestions?

Usually they do not issue a timeline until all of the entries are in. They estimate it off of the number of entries for each event and the entry times. You are sort of in a Catch-22, they probably won't give they information you need until after the entry deadline. Maybe someone can give a rough estimate based on who has entered so far.
