Thursday AM Workout:
It is mornings like today that make me love coaching; a pool filled with swimmers, the sound of hard work, and another beautiful sunrise - the sun rose a little later today, but when it did, it did so on 50 swimmers doing an 800 IM with push-ups and burpees at each end of the pool.
There was a more competitive attitude this morning - our swimmers were not going to give anything to our neighbours from East. THIS is why I wanted them to come and train with us.
Our junior swimmers had a great session with Coach Henry, who has come in to coach for the past two days even though his wife only gave birth on Saturday! It is great having him on the pool deck!
Tomorrow: Swim + Beach (Tanjong)
- We swim from 7am-9am as usual.
- The bus will depart from UWC Dover for Tanjong Beach at 9:30am - all swimmers should pack something to eat WHILE THEY ARE CHANGING. I'm not sure on rules about eating on the bus!
- It would also be wise to pack a few snacks and a water bottle for the rest of the day.
- SUNSCREEN IS A MUST!
- We will supply Subway sandwiches at approx. 11:30am and have quite a large quantity of water that we will take with us.
- We have no fixed wet weather plan...obviously if there is lightning, we will seek shelter. If there is rain - we can continue to play. If we have a situation where the weather really turns bad - to the point that it doesn't look like it will improve, we may return to Dover early but we will supervise the swimmers...watch a movie etc.
- The pick-up time for all swimmers is 3pm at the pool.
