MEET READY THURSDAY

 

Since we eat and play as a team on Fridays, our theme every Thursday is “MEET READY THURSDAY”.   This is where we do everything fast from starts, turns and finishes.  No slow pace drill just thinking about quality speed.

Here is what we did in our yard pool with our green squad for 9-10 while the blue squad worked in the meter pool.

Don’t forget our color code  red=smooth 60-70%   BLUE= build to your race speed 80-90%  PURPLE is our GO SPEED  race here no slackers
