Long Course Training in Short Course Pool

I'm considering doing my first LCM meet this summer. I have access to LC facilities, but currently train on my own and SCY pools are my closest/most convenient options. If I do a meet, I will probably only swim free/*** events. I may entertain a 200IM, but that's highly unlikely ;) What's the best way to prepare for long course in a yards pool? Thank you! Amanda

    Will you folks forgive me if I thought this thread was an April Fools joke, a couple of days late? (I'm a Newbie, so I am totally prepared to be SCHOOLED for my ignorance/ineptitude/temerity. Hit me!! Hit me hard!!!) How can SC swimming be inadequate for LC? I was a runner for 45 years. How can road/trail/indoor (200m) track running be inadequate for outdoor (400m track) races? My brain is not wired to understand this thread. You experienced swimmers will no-doubt help me understand the errors of my thinking.
