Has anyone completed the 1 hour postal swim yet? If so, how did you do?
I missed 5,000 yards by 4 yards! So officially, since we have to "round down" I got 4995 yards.
BTW I am a 51 year old guy. What's weird to me is that I swam much better (well, 60 yards better) than last year, when I felt I was in significantly better shape. I also didn't get nearly as tired this year as last year.

Actually, what is required is that there be a person acting solely in that capacity - not one of the timers and not one of the swimmers. It does NOT need to be a certified official. It would be nice if they would state that explicitly in the meet info (they'd probably get greater participation). As it is, I suggest you do due diligence and verify that for yourself with the meet director rather than taking my word for it. You just never know what to trust here in cyberspace.
