GoSwim GoldAnother Cahllenge set
Start New Topic|
Just back from another session designed to find out those who are mentally as well as physically strong:
Warm up:
Main 'Drop Out' set:
Drop out if you failed to make a turn round and encourage everybody still swimming that set
1 x 100m IM Race from a dive - 8 heats of 5 swimmers - two opted out of the timed swim.
Great team building exercise and they had a great time. 4 actually swam faster than their existing 100 IM pb on the timed swim. Serious fun!! |

Wow, tough workout for sure. Makes me shudder just reading it. |

how old are these swimmers????? |
|
|
Youngest was 10, oldest 45 but most were 15 - 17. One 12 year old got to swim 3 of the 3 x 1.40 before 'failing'. But, as usual we had our full range of swimmers in the water from 11 upwards. Our standard minimum age for the Monday session is 12 but if they are quick enough they come into the bottom 2 lanes from 10. Not a normal session for the youngest ones I hasten to add, but, occasionally, they enjoy the challenge of seeing how far they can get into a set with the older swimmers |

Youve just given our Coach(the Dad) a very, very bad idea....hihihi |

Enjoy and set the turn rounds so that everybody gets to make some at least to begin with. |
