Was going to swim the 200 fly at the Rowdy Gaines meet, but meet canceled due to Hurricane Matthew.
So there's a local swim meet this weekend, they offer the 200 free but not the 200 fly.
Can I swim fly in the freestyle event, and have the time submitted for a butterfly Top 10 consideration?
It might seem goofy at first, but the reason it doesn't count is it's a freestyle event so you could do lots of things that are illegal in a butterfly race and not get DQed for it. You could do all one-handed touches, throw in a few one-arm strokes, roll onto your back, etc. and it would still be a perfectly legal swim since it's freestyle.
