Much was happening today at our practice. We have a group of athletes headed to Orlando, and many of these athletes came down in total volume today as we gear up for the meet. We saw a nice set of 16x50 (every 4th Fast) from those athletes….all 6 athletes were strong in their paces.
We rocked a few starts, and of course everyone spent some time on the stroke count 25s to start the practice.
The "training group" -- which is a small portion of the Pro Series athletes as well as the Senior Champs-focused athletes and the FLAGS-focused athletes.
This was out set:
3x: 200 IM Fast + 100 easy
4x: 150 Back-Breast-Free Fast + 100 easy
5x: 100 Free Fast + 100 easy
To give you an idea of where we were after 3 200s, here are some results (200 #3….starting to really get into the set here and expecting within 10-12 of your best racing time is the minimum standard in my mind).
Jack 204
Cole 208
Wyatt 209
Paolo 214
Aaron 213
Jacob 217
Karen 214
Keiran 215
Alex 219
Davis 221
Emma 225
Abby 231
Madi 232
Chloe 231
This is just the beginning of the set. A few of the athletes in the back of the line (end of the list) stepped up to have great 100s at the end of the set (Alex, Keiran, Davis, and Abby are three with underwhelming 200s….not terrible but I'd certainly like all of our guys to be 212 or better and girls to be 222 or better, even to start the set).
Check my next post (above) to see more about the day today, and what I look for in athletes in terms of "turning things around".
