Need advice.
Clarification: I am going to LCM Nats. This is just a question mainly concerned with should I swim a local meet first.

I'm all for getting in the practice, but if you won't be in your best shape--skip the little meet. Granted, this is coming from someone who practices LCM year round, but I'd rather go into the big meet pumped and ready than bummed after a poor performance at a smaller meet.
Unfortunately, I'm in the bummed camp right now after so-so performances at two tune-up meets recently. That, and my 6th event (dropped) is the one for which I was feeling most confident.:frustrated: Friends don't let friends get bummed before nationals.
