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!

  • Elaine, congrats on the meet!! Sounds like you had a great time, which is the best part about master meets. And you had some great times to start off with. I see some huge improvements coming your way, too. I have 2 meets before Nationals - April 10th in my home pool and Zones at the end of April. First I have to get back in shape after a week at Disney!
