PNW Tri Novices

Yes! The nice thing about these clinics is that they have one lane and one coach for beginners, where they teach you the correct basics---stroke, breathing, etc.; lots of teaching over in that lane as well as practicing; then, several lanes and one coach for the technique/efficiency folks, who already know the basics of the freestyle but need to work on doing it better (I'm there); lots of observing and teaching here as well; and one lane for swim team, the few people good enough to not need much coaching--they are just assigned a certain set of laps and they go on their own.

I LOVE these clinics. They are so good for me and really fun. I always come out totally stoked and slightly bananas with respect to adrenalin level, as my spouse will attest (Him--"Are you starting to wind down a little now?" Me--"Yeah, but I forgot to tell you about this one really cool drill she had us do where..." Etc.).
