We had our TTs on Saturday and it went really well. Only swam our team as we have like 150+ swimmers. Its stupid huge. I think we had over 20 heats of free alone. But somehow we got that done in like 45 min and only took 3 hours to get completely done. We even had new S&Ts doing it with plenty of DQs so not like it went smooth.
But its a crammed two months. B meets already starting tonight and then the grind sets in. We will have the usual pep rallies and team events and themes for each A meet. Getting enough people to volunteer can still be a chore. I had to pull people from the crowd for second shift timers cause people just don't sign up to help. Well if I gotta stand and time your kid then you can help stand and time your kid and mine. But some people are fun to be around and as long as you make it fun for others you can slog thru the long meets and hot days.
And also destroy a diet with all the food you need to cram in during meets to live. Donuts, burgers, pizza. RIP my diabeetus, cholesterol and clothes.
