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!
Bummer! There's nothing worse than having a pool right there, but not being able to get IN it! That's how I felt during the couple of times our pool was closed for repairs.:bitching:
Maybe the rest will do you good and you will have a great meet. Gooooo Alison! :cheerleader:
Thanks, Elaine. My coach says he might come to watch me swim at this next meet. :afraid: He's never seen me in a meet since he's an age group coach. I hope I don't freak out.
