Oh hello ��! Think back to the last time you did a big, “boring” swim practice. Maybe the set was something you didn’t see the point of. Your mind wandered. Your focus wavered. Time seemed to slow to a dog-paddle-with-DragSox-on crawl. And hey, I get it… I am not immune to my mind wandering outside the lane lines, especially when I am dead tired or I am stressed out or I’m fantasizing about the 16-course dinner I am going to stuff in my gullet when I get home. But if...

Heyo, Here’s something to think about on this chilly January morning… (Seriously… it’s like icicle-finger season at my house this month…) What are the guardrails you have for your swimming? The things that keep you on track and focused on improvement and getting the most of yourself? The things that keep you on track with your goals?
