Swimming at USS meets

Hi-- Anyone else (who's not in their 20's) ever swim USS meets? I entered one this weekend and am now nervous that I will (at 41) stick out like a sore thumb. My times should be somewhere in the middle of the pack but I'm wondering how dorky I will feel walking up to the blocks. Just curious to hear about anyone else's USS swimming experiences... Thanks!

  • I think you'll do fine. And you'll be surprised at the support you get from the young swimmers. My first swim meet (ever) was a USS meet I entered as a 49 year old. I do a few every year because masters meets are hard to get to sometimes but with my kids swimming I'm already at the USS meet so I might as well swim.
