Please mark the relays you are available to swim when you register. The relays must be submitted before the swim meet.
This year, you may swim the 800 or 1500, not both. They are accepting 16 entries for the 1500 and 24 for the 800, so register early if you plan to swim one of those distance events. They are also only allowing 4 individual entries each day.

Coordinate with your teammates to create relays, 3 women, 3 men, and/or 4 mixed (2 women, 2 men). The relays are in ten-year age groups: 18+, 25+, 35+...The more people who swim, the more relays we can enter. The team will take care of the relay entries. Just show up and swim your best.

It's time to show off your long-course summer training. Sign up for the USMS 5K/10K Virtual National Championship. SPM's first Team Day is August 16th from 7-11 am at North Shore Pool. Swap counting duties with a teammate (or convince an unwitting friend or family member) and swim your way into a best time or some medals. Remember to enter your splits after you swim. Awards are delivered via US Post, which is a great surprise package.
Even better, gather your teammates so you can be a part of relays. After you swim, the team will enter relays, three women, three men, and/or mixed (2 men, 2 women). The relays go in ten year age groups 18+, 25+, 35+. . . essentially you could get three medals for one (very long) swim.
