Does anyone know if there are any rules on pacing? I tried to find information on it but couldn't. The question was raised at our meet yesturday when one of the swimmers had someone swim next to her just to pace her on her 500. Is this legal?

    How were you disadvantaged in the least? It could have benefited you or, alternatively, you could have paid absolutely no attention and swam your own race. I always swim my own race. Thank you. That's why I don't need a pacer. First I wasn't in the same heat. Second, she is in my age group. Third, if she did do it to get a top 10 time or something like that, do you really think that is fair? Also, let it be known that the pacer never finished his laps. He quit when she was done.
