In Olympic swimming, is there a limit to how many events a competitor may enter? ?

Question

Could Michael Phelps have entered more events if he desired to try? Or is there a limit of 8? Also, what are all of the swimming events? I know there are multiple distances and strokes but I'm not sure what all of the races are.

Thanks!

Answer 3

No limit, but he didn't enter more because he needs time to recover from one before competing in another.
