North Eastern Counties - Weekend 1

This weekend is the first weekend of the big one for those swimmers who have qualified.  Let's SMASH IT!!  

Remember, use the walls to pick up speed, not loose speed, every millisecond counts.  Pick up the effort every 50m and hold your technique when feeling tired. 

Just a reminder of the arrival times at John Charles this weekend. 

Am Sessions (Heats)
Arrive: 30 Minutes before your scheduled warm up (Click Here)
Start: 09:00

The draft programme can be viewed here.  Final instructions including withdrawals, spectator tickets, volunteers and live streaming can be viewed here.

Monday 29th April -  No Am Training (Swimmers who have competed in NER's)

                   Normal (Swimmers who have not competed at NER's)

                  Normal (Swimmers who have not competed at NER's)


Please make sure you all prepare well and stay hydrated over the weekend; it will be very hot on poolside.  Remember your snacks for poolside off the nutrition list.  

"Before the (Olympic) trials I was doing a lot of relaxing exercises and visualisation.  And I think that that helped me to get a feel of what It was gonna be like when I got there.  I knew that I had done everything that I could to get ready for that meet, both physically and mentally".  (Michael phelps, 6 Gold Medals, 2004 Olympic Games)

Like Michael Phelps, you should plan in your head what you are going to do in your race.  Visualise your streamlining, kicks off the wall, not breathing last 5m etc and it will happen.  Thinking about skills after the race is too late.

Best of luck to you all
