[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My personal annoyance threshold for 8 and unders and IM is that all their 25s added together shouldn't be over 2 minutes. They have no business signing up for a guaranteed 2+ minute IM during a B meet. It's not a super high bar.[/quote] I don’t think it works like that. My 8 year-old combined individual strokes is less than 2 mins. However, his IM is more than 2 mins. Just saying. You should be more encouraging of little kids swimming this bigger kids event. [/quote] I get that the IM will be slower than the combined times. But if there is no possibility a kid could go close to two minutes, it's a little rude for a B meet. I feel the same for club swim-- if the 50 free isn't under a minute, they're probably not ready for the 100 yet.[/quote] Amen, sister. I wish that coaches would adhere to this type of rule, especially in those early season club meets. [/quote]
