Some really good sprinting at the Yorkshire Sprints by the Regional Squads down at Sheffield and some amazing times. You should all be very pleased with yourselves. Three weekends of racing and all of them swum great, we are very proud of you all. We are currently in a big block of training which will take us up to Harrogate and through to the NER's. For those swimmers not attending NER's you will have 9 weeks of training up to the No Frills Meet. This is a great opportunity to attend as many sessions as possible and get some work behind you before racing again at the end of May. You may find some sessions tough, but this is aimed at getting you all into the best shape possible and race ready.
Train at 100% effort every session to give yourself the best possible chance of success in the upcoming competitions. GET STUCK IN!!!
