With no Nationals this year, USMS said they will have virtual events. I'm not sure how this will work. VR headsets are expensive enough, how much is a VR tech suit? Do they have them at Swimoutlet?
I question the woman entered with :21/:51 backstroke times as well!
As I said previously, at least a dozen inaccuracies. 50 ***, 50 back, 100 back, 50 fly as mentioned, open water 1 mile with multiple 19-21 min times that likely didn't happen, OW 2 mile-37 minutes, OW 5k-under an hour. Some other suspect times but not obvious enough to call out. I did a 1:56 "10k" race a few weeks ago but at least I wasn't dim enough to enter it as a legit time...and USMS, gave an extra week to accumulate more garbage times...yay! Hopefully, virtual swimming is not the future of USMS as it's increasing my bp and making my adrenals swell up.
