I'm a practicing Muslim and Ramadan is coming up very soon so that means I'm gonna be fasting. And due to time constraints I can only swim at one very tiny pool that must be less than 12.5 meters. The problem is that I've worked hard on getting my times low and the championship meet I want to compete at lies the day after Ramadan ends. So I can compete, but I don't just want to compete I want to win. I'm a freestyle sprinter and I focus on the 50 free and 100 free with a little bit of phases on breastroke. The question is can I do it? In such a tiny little pool, I'll probably train using USRPT but I'm not even sure if the pool is 12.5 meters.. What can I do? I just need advice, I've worked my butt off just to get to this moment and my religion is in the way

Thanks for all the advise guys.
But sadly my beautiful grandmother passed away recently, and I'm not even sure if I'm gonna attend the championship meet now. I only got one practice last week, and only am gonna be able to get two this week. (And yes I did decide to skip fast on 2-3 days a week of training until championship and just make up the fasts later, and pray to God for forgiveness, but then this came up :()
The motivation I had is just gone.. I'm not sure what I'm gonna do when it comes time for the meet. I may or may not go, If I do go I'm gonna get destroyed.. I guess there's always next year.
