I love to swim sprints in a masters meet but I also have enjoyed doing triathlons. It is very difficult to train for both. I'd love to hear from folks that compete in both masters meets and triathlons to learn how they balance training and competing in both.

This makes so much sense!! How long are your runs and bikes when you are doubling up? I'm thinking about trying this to see if my body will handle it.
When I double up, my bike rides and runs are about 45 min each. My swim practices in the night time are around 1:20. It makes it so much easier to fit the workouts in if you do some in the morning and some at night! It is also not that hard for your body to handle either- you just have to get used to it. What distance triathlon are you training for?
