May 28, 2021 – Swim Regio Solothurn

Friday evening workout for the athletes of the Junior & Senior group not competing during the first session of the meet in Basel. They went through their meet warm-up routines and had two “fast options” available.

We had very mixed results at the Internationaler Basler Cup. While most of the Junior athletes were able to improve on their performances from April, the Senior athletes continued to “struggle”. Overall it was a lot of up and down. You can find full results from the IBC on SwimRankings.
