I'm competing in my first swim meet in 30+ years. I have three events spaced evenly through the day. (50 fly, 100 free & 500 free in that order). I'm trying to figure out what to bring tomorrow other than a towel, suit and goggles. It should be hot mid-day and cool at the start and end of the day. Any suggestions for equipment, nutrition or anything else?
more than one towel
more than one shirt
extra pair of goggles & extra cap just in case of disaster (& extra suit for that matter)
foods that you already know wont weigh your tummy down
sports drinks &/or lots of cold water
but most important: a good adventurous attitude & the excitement that you are about to do something amazing!
have fun- you'll have butterflies but the feeling when you're done is something amazing
