Greetings from Claremont, California!
We're here in Claremont, California, enjoying a 8-day training trip together. We're enjoying diverse weather - a bit of sun yesterday, clouds this morning, and rain tonight... it's all good for swimming!
This trip is a great opportunity for the team. We have ten days where swimming is our primary focus, and the team gets to bond even closer together. Our regular daily schedule (with some variations) is to wake up, eat, swim, eat, sleep, swim, eat, sleep. The work is tough, but we know the hard work will pay off at the end of the season.
We will be competing at UC Irvine in their relay
meet Sunday afternoon - hopefully, we'll have a post up to let you know how that meet goes. Next Friday, we'll be flying to Portland for a meet at Willamette on Friday and Lewis and Clark on Saturday. If you're in the area, come cheer us on!
