Nov 11 & 13, 2020 – Swim Regio Solothurn

Another Wednesday evening where we needed to break the team in two groups – one of them training today and the other one on Friday evening – both doing the same recovery focused workout. Relaxed aerobic kicking & pulling and incorporating some stroke and medley work.

Our athlete preparing for SC Nationals starting this lucky Friday the 13th did the first two 500’s with the group and then adapted the set of 50’s & 100’s to finish her “taper session”.
