I just went to my first two-day meet this weekend, and I had a really rough time the second day. The first day I was able to to get personal bests in 2 of my 3 swims and was only about half a second off in the other, but the second day I was 1-3 seconds off in all three races. I was also a little sore the second day, probably because there was no warmup pool. Is there anything I should have done so I could swim faster the second day?

There is no real answer to this issue. Middle age sucks and it ain't for sissies. The Evil Smith and I are so tight and sore by the 3rd day of Masters Nationals it's a joke. Massage therapy is a great solution for this at the big meets. Smaller local meets you just have to grind through it.
Gone are the days of feeling great day after day. If you do hit one every now and then, enjoy it.
