Apr 8, 2022 – Swim Regio Solothurn

Relaxed aerobic focused Friday evening session for the National & Junior National group. This was our last practice as we took a 10 day break during the first week of the Spring holidays to provide the athletes some time away with family and real rest (meaning no “early” morning wake-ups for school or other “commitments”).

Our athletes preparing for Regional Dual Meet with the State Select Team starting tomorrow did an individual 1.5k loosen swim this evening. It was a long cycle and really pushing our “taper” all the way to this meet. Overall, our athletes had a strong showing and contributed solid performances to our State Team (RZW) – unfortunately, they still finished outside the podium in 4th place this year. Results from the Swiss Junior Cup are available on SwimRankings.
