This week:

Practices:

Monday 5:00-6:30 AM/3:45-6:45 PM

Tuesday 3:45-6:45 PM

Wednesday 3:45-6:15 PM

Thursday 5:00-6:30 AM/3:45-6:45 PM

Friday 5:00-6:30 AM

Saturday 6:00-8:00 AM

Notes:

• We will not be swimming the Friday night at the IMX meet, as the meet is much too large and not originally intended for our group. We will have the most opportunities to swim the 800/1500 free. Instead we will practice that morning 5:00-6:30 AM, and have off in the afternoon.

• Additionally, with the meet going on Saturday, we will need to swim from 6:00-8:00 AM, no dryland.

• Seems like most athletes have exams or other conflicts around the Ultra Swim. I, in many ways like the UGA meet better than the Ultra Swim. Plenty of competition at UGA, and less disruptive to training and school schedule. Rich is going to the Ultra Swim, so feel free to sign up. I am going to the UGA Meet.

• In working with the Palo Alto team for the Santa Clara Meet, looks like they can accommodate our swimmers with Senior National Cuts, and maybe the next few closest. They will have final numbers to us around the 1st of May.

• I have purchased my flight for the Santa Clara Trip. Please contact me before you purchase to make sure we have housing arranged. Red-eye home, you guys will love it! We will take a Super Shuttle to Stanford campus from the airport, will need about $15.00 (twice, each way) for the trip.

• The Florida travel trip is due on Monday the 25th. Those going to Santa Clara, to attend both would be a lot of travel in a short period of time. I would not recommend it, except in certain circumstances. Other than that, this is a competitive meet that all have liked. Please get your forms and money in to me Monday.

• On Tuesday the 26th at 6:45 PM in the weight room at Chamblee is our “parent meeting’ for this season.

Thanks,
