byRBR AdminFridays and Saturdays in April and May are some of the big meets of the season. The sixteen to twenty weeks of training now is put on the line, as you have to show what you are made of. Can you rise to the challenge? All during the season, we have provided you workouts to help make you stronger, faster, and more confident.
It is all about progression. The problem is, that, like evolution, progress is not linear. One must focus on the present and do their best, day by day. And bad days come like good days. One learns from the bad days and the good ones too.
