GOT GOALS?

By Dr. Alan Goldberg-Sports Psychology for Athletes, Coaches & Parents

Posted on 09/15/2008

In swim training there's a term called "garbage yardage" which refers to the swimmer physically putting in the time training but while doing so, being mentally out to lunch. You know, it's the old, "going through the motions" thing.

If you want to get more out of your training this year, then you need to train with a purpose. You need to train with a reason. If you have a reason for putting all this time in, sacrificing and physically suffering, then you will indeed get far more out of your training then if you just go through the motions.

Spring / Summer Meet Schedule–Senior Group

Below is the list of meets the Senior group will attend during the LC season.  We have carefully selected meets that will allow swimmers to work throughout the summer as well as being conscious of travel costs.  Swimmers are expected to attend the meets with an asterisk.  You will have plenty of notice to make work arrangements.

*May 17th only - BSC Spring Classic

*June 6-8 - Spring into Summer (all days since it's local and SCY / LCM) – you need not attend all 3 days of the meet

*June 13-15 - Flag City (We will pick a day).

*June 28-29 - BSC Summer Splash (We will pick a day).

July 4-6 – Mike Peppe / John Bruce Invitational – This is not a required meet since it is over a holiday and some of you may have out-of-town plans

  • YOU MUST RESPOND BY FRIDAY, May 2 if you plan to attend this meet

July 21-24 – Central Section 3, Oxford, OH (Miami University) Those qualified have agreed to go only one or 2 days so only 1 overnight and all will go the same days.  If you have qualified (or are close), please make hotel reservations NOW.
