I am hoping for some advice: What is a good warm up set ? The meet starts at noon. What is a good breakfast ? What time to eat? Would you than snack or have a lunch? what would you eat? It was alot easier when I was 20....

    Very good advise in the 1st reply. Noon time meet... Have some protein for breakfast which will stave off sugar highs and lows. Take a few light snacks, or some fruit, and some bottled water. No need for a meal. Save that for after the meet. Warm up... Go easy until you feel loose. When you feel ready, try a few sprints. Get a feel for the starting blocks and the walls. Every pool is different even if they're all the same size and shape. Keep warm in between events, and have an extra dry towel on hand. Sit back and enjoy. Good luck.
