GR Christian/HC Meet Results

Results are posted HERE. We had some really good swims (and diving) Thursday night. We need to open up our meets the way that we finished this one. We had a quite a few season best times and even quite a few lifetime best swims. That is exciting to see at this point of the season with the heavy training that we are doing. Be aware that your work that you do today pays dividends weeks down the road. That means that we need to continually do what is required of us in order to continue to get faster. Focused practice is required to become a better swimmer/athlete. Continue doing the little things correctly and with purpose and the big picture will fill in.

This week we have two home meets. Tuesday against Wayland and Thursday against Allegan. We need to be on deck ready to roll at 5:10 for both of these meets. We will be doing a bit of extra warm-up work before each. We will be trying some different events and getting a bit of a break from our normal swims.

The MISCA Clinic this weekend was a great opportunity for me to connect with coaches that I don't get to see very often. It is really fun to hear some of the different things that people are trying and share some of the things that we do as well. I also had the opportunity to hear some great talks from Eddie Reese of the University of Texas and Dave Salo of USC.

I am looking forward to a great week of training and racing. I hope you are too!
Thanks
