FIRST SWIM PRACTICE OF 2025

 

Toady we went through our traditional first practice for 2025 with the Junior Gold swimmers.

Here is a look at what we did.  This was meant more as a mental challenge more than anything else.

We started with our 20x25 @35 (odds were free 3 breaths and evens were backstroke kick)

We were than ready to turn our attention to the 25 100’s done in 5 sets of 5 with a 100 kick on our backs smooth where we got some good air while filling our lungs.

  • 5@1:45+100 back kick
  • 5@1:40+100 back kick
  • 5@1:35+100 back kick
  • 5@1:25+ 100 kick on back and then fins on
  • 5@1:20+100 kick on back

FINISHING WITH THIS ALL RACE FAST (setting up our first 25 for your 50 free)

1x125 free from dive to fast flip+25 smooth back in other lane

1x25 free from dive with 2 breaths to fast flip+25 smooth back in other lane

1x25 fly from dive

Great job today with this.  Way to stay focused as we worked through it

MOVING THROUGH LIFE

 

Today marks the first day of 2025.  New doors will open throughout the year in your life and for our purposes the same will happen in your swimming.  

When that door opens the only question YOU have to answer is this- - - Do I have the courage and the confidence to open that door and charge through it.

We believe you do and we would like you to take a chance and go for it during your first race of 2025.

Happy new year to Junior Gold and Junior Blue group swimmers. May the new year bring powerful strokes, personal bests and the thrill of racing.  May each of you gain the courage and confidence to keep pushing the limits and embracing every challenge that comes knocking on your door. Remember this is your story, you are the author, editor and publisher.  The way the story ends is in your hands.  

Make a big splash in 2025and keep pushing yourself.
