Training!

The senior group has finally had our first FULL 8 practice week of training. Everyone was tired by the end of the week but it was in a good way. Everyone is figuring where they are at heading into the first full meet of the year this weekend is Saskatoon. Most of you are swimming 9-10 races and it should be a very successful weekend. Skills are the focus this weekend. Lets see how well you can keep it together when you are in the a race situation!

Tuesday mornings are about to start. Our first Tuesday morning workout will be Tuesday November 6th. Rarely will we ever take the Monday after a meet off instead we will take the Tuesday morning off. That extra bit of sleep will help you in the recovery process from a meet more so than taking an evening off. There will be exceptions to this, such as when we rest for an out of town meet like Victoria. Then we will take Monday night and possibly Tuesday morning off as well.

Keep checking back for regular updates. I hope to have some videos up of some of the races after Saskatoon.
