SWIM MEET WRAP UP

 

What were the take always from the meet this past weekend?  Did you meet your expectations?  Did you set those expectations too high?  Too low?  Maybe you did not have any?  

Setting expectations centered based solely on the time is not always the best way to go.  Why, because you are basing everything on an arbitrary result that in reality you cannot control.

Your time does not paint a full picture on your canvas….it will only tells you what happened but not why it happened or whether you’re really improving in the ways it truly matters. If your mechanics (little things) are not sound it only gives you a false signal.  Best times with negative attitudes weak starts, sloppy turns, weak underwater’s, no pacing is not the same as best times when those mechanics are working.

If you judge your performance based solely on the time you may miss the parts of your race that will help you in your future development as you chase those goals and dreams.
