Regan Smith once again proved that her move to Arizona State was a positive, taking the national title in the 200 fly. Smtih reiterated after the race that she’s loving life in Tempe, reflecting that she has never worked as hard in training as she had this season and loving every minute of it.
I am pulling for her to get that 200 back spot tonight!
All but guaranteed.
Bob Bowman will make you work the hardest yet keep the pool session to 90 minutes. A perfect combination! I know a lot of coaches who hold 2-3 hour pool sessions. Bob Bowman would say they are being inefficient, and I agree.
3 hour weekend practices still haunt me
One of my coaches described it best. Said something along the lines of,
-there’s two ways to get better the good work quality way working on small details and not doing too much or the banging your head into the wall constantly until you get better way and doing too many thousands of yards in a practice. Let’s just say I’ve done both and more and more coaches are beginning to see that one way is more effective than the other.
It’s never been a better time to get that monkey (W 200 BK) off your back, no pun intended.
