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!
Congrats on your meet, Elaine! I bet you will see some big improvements at Nationals since you've only been swimming for such a short time! :)
Thanks, Carrie! Hey, I like "AquaFiesty"! My husband calls me "Aqua Dog" and pumps me up on my swim days by singing out the first notes of Jethro Tull's, "Aqua Lung" (Gross lyrics in that song, but the music is awesome!)
ANYWAY, nice of you to post your "contrats"! Thanks!! :D
