Senior Silver & Gold March 31st - April 6th Updates and Reminders

Tripp Montgomery

Hello Senior Silver & Gold Swimmers and Parents,

1.  April 5th & 6th is our first long course meet of the 2025 season in Yucaipa.  ​ 

  • Updates and reminders will be sent out as they become avaiilable. 
  • Use this meet as a launching point for your long course season ahead.
  • Don't worry so much about your times, more about your execution.  DETAILS!

2.  Training Equipment Updates / Reminders. 

  • Water shoes:  Do you have an old pair of sneakers you don't use?  If so, add them to your equipment bag.  
  • Tempo Trainer:  https://www.finisswim.com/Tempo-Trainer-Pro
  • Parachutes.  Ask me for one you can borrow if you don't already have one issued to you this past Saturday.  

3.  Weekly Training Plans.

  • Weekly training plans will vary week by week for now.  
  • Expect "off yardage".  
  • What does this mean?    
    • 75's, 125's, 175's, 225's and so on.  
    • Off yardage helps prepare for long course while swimming in a short course pool.

4.  Sunday April 27th:  Mark your calendars and sign up for Science In Swimming. 

Drag - Propulsion - Inertia 

5.  Long Course Training Schedule Alert!  

  • Our spring / summer long course training plans are coming together.  Coach Jenn has been working very hard on securing long course training time starting in June.  Stay tuned for more information. 

6.  What is up with the motivational photo attached to this email?

It is my belief and experience that you can swim faster by celebrating the successes of others.  Surround yourself with those who celebrate success.  Positive energy creates fast swimming.  DETAILS!

Try it!  You will be better for it.  

Let's GO!
