What seed times do you use when registering for Master's meets?
A) your best time in a master's meet
B) Your most recent time
C) What you think you will swim for this particular meet
D) other
I have been going with 'C', but am curious what other folks do...
Over here our sign-ups are done via a time database system, so they take the fastest times you have registered. But coaches can go in and "fake" times if you don't have one.
Like for example I am going to swim the 1500m in 6 weeks, I have no time, but qualified in the 400m, so I can swim the 1500 too. BUT NT are not allowed. so he will fake a time that I am guessing. I hope that I can swim it under 19:00, but at practice I have yet to swim one under 19:45 so that will be my seed time.
