SWIM-750M

750m swim, will take place at the Aboussafy Aquatic Center. There are 6 lanes which will have 4 swimmers per lane, for a total of 24 swimmers in a heat. We will have a limit of 6 heats, 144 athletes. Each heat will have athletes seeded as per their estimated swim time for the 750m. Slower swimmers will start in the early heats and the faster swimmers in the final heat. Laps will be counted by volunteer lap counters. You will swim 15 laps of the pool.
 
After the first heat, swimmers will be put in the water continuously as the lanes opened up. This is getting to be more popular as it moves the race along and nobody ever has to experience that fear of being the last person out of the water in their heat!
