We are in to the busy time of year where we have very full lanes so it is particularly challenging to ensure we all get a good swim. To be fair to everyone, please do try and follow some simple rules as much as possible:
- Please turn up on time if at all possible. It is disruptive to other swimmers if you are late, especially when the lanes are very full. I know it is not always possible for everyone to turn up on time, due to family commitments and the like, but please do if you can.
- Please sign in and pay, for the lane you plan to swim in, before getting in the water. The sign-up sheet should tell you which lanes have space if people correctly sign in.
- Please be flexible and consider moving lane if appropriate. Everyone in the pool should be able to get a good workout in a faster or slower lane than their normal lane. In a faster lane you may need to miss out some of the reps and keep out of the way of faster swimmers some times. When swimming in a slower lane you may need to put more effort in to each rep to get a similar training effect from the set.
This week we will be doing some speed endurance 100s to continue the faster-paced work we started last week after some more practice on higher stroke rate drills in the warm up. See you Saturday!
