AG1 September Meet Wrap-up

Michael Chasson
SwimTember weekend  wasn’t  about chasing time drops, it was about executing our systems: showing up on time, warming up with intention, racing with strategy, fueling properly, cheering loudly for teammates, bouncing back after tough swims, and even staying warm and dry in the rain. Those systems paid off, and the time drops we did see were the  result  of doing the little things right. We’ve built a strong foundation to launch into the season, and we know exactly where to focus in practice to keep moving forward.

Overall, this was a very strong first meet that gave us valuable feedback and set the tone for the season ahead. I’m proud of the way our athletes supported one another, learned from each swim, and turned small details into big results. We have a clear direction moving forward, and I’m excited to see the progress continue.
