Am I to assume, with the last hurrah for this generation of tech suits, that Nationals will be huge, and therefore no 6th event?
Is it even worth it to enter 6?
Charge more, pay for more officials, abolish QTs and and let anyone turn up and do 6.
:2cents:
I know it's a long day or several but its should be the highlight of any competing swimmer's year...who cares if I spend a few more hours with a bunch of folks I love and admire.
I don't want the 6th event cancelled either. At Indy, the 6th event was cancelled (I recall?), the meet was started extra early, and it still ended at a decent time. 4:30 one day? WTH? If nationals is ending that early, I don't see the issue. If you're at Nationals, expect to spend the day at the pool. It's not like a half day in season meet. It costs plenty in terms of money and family time "chips," so let's swim.
Now, no need for the sarcasm, Stud.
