Most club/area web sites have meet results available. Just check them out and see how you would do in your area. The National Meet and Top Ten Times list is very competitive. If you aren&#39;t fast enough to do well in those you can still go to local meets, have fun, and who knows you may even win some events! Have Fun!<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/140701?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 02 Mar 2010 08:42:15 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:c7d38b19-4f05-42e9-b841-45f7585f9fe9KEWebb18You can look at the top ten times for your events to see how your times compare to your age group <a href="http://www.usms.org/comp/tt/">http://www.usms.org/comp/tt/</a> Those swimmers are the best, but not necessarily in your area. There is also a rankings for all results. You can look to see where your time falls compared to all other swimmers in your age group for your event <a href="http://www.usms.org/comp/meets/toptimes.php">www.usms.org/.../toptimes.php</a> Hope this helps.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/140685?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 02 Mar 2010 08:41:55 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:c2060f75-0e70-4f60-a16a-80aa0542fb91SwimTotoSwimMasters does have time standards for USMS Nationals, but they also allow entry to national in 3 events without making time standards to encourage participation. To swim additional events (upto 6 total), you need to enter with times below the standards. You can find the USMS NQT for upcoming SCY National at: <a href="http://www.usms.org/comp/nationals.php">www.usms.org/.../nationals.php</a> In addition, FINA sets times standards for Worlds: <a href="http://www.2010finamasters.org/swwwing/app/cm/Browse.jsp?PAGE=1125572">www.2010finamasters.org/.../Browse.jsp</a> Hope that helps, Anthony Thompson<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/140732?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 02 Mar 2010 02:08:04 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:80b039ff-c455-4bf4-80d1-f9fb00c107b0orca1946Until state or national , any time you want to enter is OK. the ideas listed above will also help you.

That is precisely what I was looking for... As I thought, I&#39;m barely a B! But I&#39;ve definitely got something to work toward now.
