Sanctioned by the Pacific Masters for USMS Inc. Sanction #381-S006

The 200 fly, 200 back, and 200 breast are among the most dreaded events in competitive swimming, so that’s all we’re offering in this ePostal! Challenge yourself and use this as an opportunity to prepare for our Alan Liu Animal Pentathlon in the fall! (If we can’t host a meet, we’ll do another ePostal.)

Enter your favorite event or two… or if you want to be a triple threat at non-free, enter all three.

Swim your events between June 1 and June 30. Submit your results by July 10.
Register and submit times at the same time through this form - register only once, after you've timed yourself.

This ePostal is part of the Pandemic ePostal Challenge Series held by Pacific Masters Swimming. Information on the series can be found here. See below for information on points.

TIMING: A pace clock or stopwatch may be used for timing purposes. If you use a pace clock and cannot provide hundredths, add “.99” to your documented time.
