I would love to see dual sanctioned meets, especially in my area. But until that day comes I guess I will just have to swim in both leagues. I have done 3 meets this year with USS swimming with GCAT. The last one had 5 Masters swimmers and some of us were not too bad and had a fantastic meet. My first meet I even got to do a relay with 2 13 year olds and a 14 year old. It was great.
I have to say USS meets allow for alot more rest between events than masters meets. I never question myself for doing 2 back to back events in USS meets, there is always time to recover. Masters meets tend to have less rest between events so sometimes my times are not great but they are always in the ball park of my best.
