Back to back meets

Anyone have experience swimming in meets on consecutive weekends? I've never done this myself, but am contemplating doing meets April 24-25 (Zones, SCY) and May 3 (SCM). Was planning to rest a week or so for Zones and then just keep resting. My main worry is that I'm usually pretty zonked for a few days after a two day meet. Is this a bad idea? Any advice? My main motivation to go to the second meet is that I'm not sure I'll get another SCM meet in this year. There are no local meets, and right now I have family conflicts with travel meets.

    You and your cohort Michelina are meet goddesses. :bow: Think you're in better shape than me. No full taper for Zones. I'll probably be in the feeling like crap stage for that meet. If I can't overload myself, I guess the 50 *** will just HAVE to go. lol Better shape than you? HA! I've turned into a couch potato. I'm sure you'll do fine at both meets. If you're really worried, you can swim in my lanes at zones. I wouldn't mind recording some of your times as my own:bump:
