Hi!
I stumbled across this site while I was looking for some new interesting workouts and thought I'd look into it. I swam on community teams when I was young, and then varsity teams in high school. Now I'm a freshman in college and really missing the competition.
So I was wondering - how do you get involved w/ USMS meets? or teams? (if it helps, I'm currently in Souther CA, and spend summers in MA) Can anyone compete or do you have to be at a certain level? (according to this site, I'm a Masters Level 2) Can I compete in one state during the school year, and other during the summer?
Also, about how much/how often does everyone swim? Currently, I'm swimming about 3000yds 6x/week. Is this pretty average, or too low?
Thanks so much for all the information. I appreciate it, and hope you have a great day!

Thanks for all the info everyone! I have lots of places to swim as I work at a fitness club and a kids summer camp. I coach a kids swim team, teach lessons and work as a lifeguard. So I'll keep swimming and join the NE branch....I can't wait to compete again! :)
