What do people think is the ideal number of events to swim per day at a meet? It seems that, for local meets, you're allowed to enter up to 5 events. That is way too many for me. I'm always gassed after 3 or end up scratching an event or relying on caffeine. Yet, I'd like to get more times in different events without traveling the countryside to go to zillions of meets. So, how many is too many if you want to swim fast?

During mid-season I thinks it's fine to be swimming hard right up until the day of your meets. (As long as enough sleep has been gotten in.)
A nice easy warm-up...with maybe one short speed set is a great way to stay limber ...and keep a good feel for the water ...on the day before a meet.
