Jun 13, 2022 – Swim Regio Solothurn

Aerobic and lactate focused Monday evening for the National & Junior National groups. A shorter main set (Part 2) following the competition two days ago and also to have the athletes getting used to doing this type of work in a long course setting as we will be spending more time training outdoors in the coming weeks leading into the summer championships.

This week I was attending the annual GAIN event at Rice University in Houston, Texas and our Head Age Group Coach was taking over most of the practices for my groups (or they had to do some of the work on their own when we didn’t have a substitute option).
