Going to My First Meet!... YIKES

Ok, I'm 31 and I swam I think one freestyle relay before in my life during high school... I have recently found a coach here to swim with, and I'm going to my first meet on Saturday.. I'm a bit nervous... I have NO IDEA what events to swim.. I don't know if I'll be a better distance or sprint swimmer, but I'd like to try maybe a middle distance, and an IM.. (I really like IMs ;) ) I know i'll be slow, but I'm looking at this as having some starting times to work on. Does anyone have any suggestions for what events I might try for my first time out? Jeanette..:rolleyes:

  • Swim what you are comfortable with.....as Jeff was saying, pick a stroke and/or distance that you feel confident in. Doing a 100 IM would be a pretty good event to start with. Whatever you decide to swim, know that you will do well, and most importantly, keep a smile on your face and have fun with it!
