[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In case you are wondering why the 2nd, 3rd and 4th relay splits don’t count, those relay splits are typically 0.5-0.7 sec faster than from a regular start. This is because the swimmer is watching the prior leg swim in and can anticipate their start, rather than react to the starting horn. The most elite swimmers take 0.6-0.7 sec to react to the starting horn, so age groupers are probably more like 0.8 sec. Also, many kids can get a better start from a relay takeoff, although not all. My kids have a better flat start than relay start. [/quote] Thanks. Want to set expectations for DS and I wasn’t sure if they counted so I appreciate the info. I’m also noticing some very odd relay split times in meet mobile from Winter Classic and I was watching the relays so I wonder if these splits are not reliable. But meet mobile from winter classic has a lot of odd things. Hopefully it’s cleaned up before results are published. [/quote]
