Week 4 and the Week Ahead

“Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you.” ~ John 14:27.

"Peace is not something you wish for, it is something you make, something you are, something you do, and something you give away." - Robert Fulghum

My wish for all of you is to find the Peace only offered through Jesus and then take every opportunity to give that peace away to others. I pray that your Christmas will be filled with loved ones and cherished memories.

OUR LAST MEET

What an Awesome meet on Thursday vs. Grand Rapids Christian. Not only did we have some amazing swims, we ended up with a hard fought win. GREAT JOB!!!
Meet Splits - Click here for splits and results. These show comparisons to both lifetime  and season best times. Negative numbers in the right column indicates the amount of time that an athlete has improved in the swim (Diving is actually just the opposite). After our first couple meets, I will only make comparisons to season bests.

CHRISTMAS BREAK PRACTICES

These next two weeks are great times to take the great conditioning work you have been doing and build on it with more technique work and laser focused intensity. These two weeks are some of the most important training of the season.
