Sonic here with some VERY exciting news! Tomorrow, January 22nd, 2005, I will be going out of town for my first Postal Swim! I'm so excited about this! It's probably more exciting than my first Freestyle Clinic too! From what I hear, it's sort of like a swim meet, where competitors try to swim (stroke of their choice) for an hour non-stop!
I feel confident enough to attend my first competition, but I have a question: How many of you attended Postal Swims before? What was your experience like??
Inquiring minds want to know.
I think the idea is that you do the swim at your own pool and then mail your results (this is the postal part) to the meet sponsor. Then the results are published and you can see how you compare to other swimmers. I believe you need to have a witness to verify your times. Check the USMS fitness site for more details.
