Swimming Set of the Week - What Are You Doing New Year's?

Posted by Barbara Hummel on Dec 26, 2011 12:56AM (0 views)

What are you doing New Year's Day or New Year's Eve.   Swimming, of course!

These are the days when teams traditionally do a longer-than-normal workout as a way to celebrate with their friends and to bring in a happy New Year.   Here are two workout options, one from Glenn and one from Barbara.   We thank you for following GoSwim, and wish everyone a year of healthy and happy (and fast) swimming.

On New Year's Eve, Barbara's team will do the third event in what's called Triple Crown, an idea that originated with Mike Collins, head coach of the NOVA Masters team.    Triple Crown 3 is 100 swims (of any length) on 1:15 sendoff...no equipment.    Click the TripleCrown3 PDF for the "rules" of Triple Crown 3 and for sample "menus" of how you might swim the event.    It takes 2 hours and 10 minutes.

Can I add a rule? Don't try swimming this one alone.

No wonder the US has great swimmers. Look what they swim for New Year, while RofSA for example is having 1.5 weeks off.
