Here's the workout from yesterday. It was a little bit different and I thought we got a lot out of it. We had eight athletes achieve the "goal times" you see on the sheet.
We had some outstanding swims from some of the athletes who did not put up 4 within the goal times listed and I thought a great effort from every athlete that did the set.
The eight people who were within their goal time ranges were: Jacob, Jack, Davis, Paolo, Shawn, Matt, Wyatt, and Bella.
Shawn led the way with 51s for 4 in a row. The rest of our guys were in the 51 high to 53 low range. Bella was rocking some 55s.
When figuring out the chart, take your best time and add a certain amount to it (the amount you see to the right of the time ranges). So an athlete with a 48 adds 4 seconds to get a 52. That athlete has to go 52 4 times to finish the set, or else they simply do the set 6 times. There's some incentive there to get after it!
Specifically for the parents: you may notice that the set of 100s I am referring to is on the right side of the practice sheet. There is a set of 200s (with scribbled-in goal times) is on the left. Instead of splitting the group, and having some athletes do the 200s and others do the 100s, I decided to have everyone do the same thing & attempt to achieve a lot of energy within the group.
