There's a meet on March 11 that I REALLY want to go to on Bainbridge Island, WA. The problem is, that's about 4 weeks away and I cant' swim for about 2 or 3 because I just got a tattoo (:D). Is it possible to train on land for those 3 weeks I can't swim, swim the week before the meet and still do ok at the meet and not feel like I"ve been out of the water for a month? Or is it a better idea to just wait for the next one? Thanx!!

What kind of tattoo is it? I'm getting an armband that matches one I got 4 years ago. When I got my first one, I was told that I could not swim in chlorine water for 10 WEEKS!!! personally, I think its a little long.
