24hr. countdown before 1st Masters meet-???

My first Masters meet is coming up on March 27&28 and I don't have a clue about: 1. Should I swim the day before or just rest? 2. What (and when) should I eat before my first race? 3. What (and when) should I swim to warm-up before my first race (200 breaststroke)? 4. What about cooldown then warming up again before my next race (medley relay)? 5. Any other recommendations, besides stretching and HAVING FUN? :D THANKS!

  • Sounds great! I read recently that eatings carbs (like bananas) are great for pre-workout and eating or drinking something high in protein is best after a workout. So, this drink sounds like a great idea. I'll pick some up, next time I'm at Super Target. Do I find it in the grocery section or with the vitamins? Thanks for taking an interest, by the way. I appreciate it and look forward to meeting you, too! I get the protein stuff with the energy bars in mine. I think that's near the vitamins. My store is a Super Target as well.
