Hope this finds you well and enjoying your racing this season. It's been full steam ahead here at HQ. I'm very happy to see that we've had some great results and incredible personal achievements so far. Well done - really proud of your dedication and belief.
Thank you for coming out for the Endurance Block In June. It's awesome to see the goals that we had set falling one by one... Enjoy the memories below.
Brave's assault on Port Dickson, led by Elvia, was a tremendous success with 5 podium spots from 5 starts. You guys killed it, Well Done! This success has sparked off several more Braves' missions coming up. There are groups going to Shangai, Xiamen, Langkawi and Western Sydney. Stay Tuned.
Some administrative updates to get out of the way so listen up:
Tuesday 'Shark Attack' swim session is moving back to 11 Blackmore Drive (Methodist Girl's School swimming pool) from 31 July. Session runs from 7.15 - 8.30 pm.
Wednesday 'Track Attack' run is moving forward for a 7.00pm start so you'll just have to leave work earlier : )
We've also started a Stroke Development Class that take place concurrently with our Thursday evening swim. Please come along and share this with your mates that might need a little help in swimming.
Next Weekend Blowout promises to be a cracker! Drop us a line to let us know if you're in : ) Details below.
Personally, I've recently been able to get back to training regularly and I'm enjoying that hugely. Some way to go getting back up there fitness wise, but I can't wait to toe the line with you lot again soon. It's been too long.
If you struggle with the Front Crawl, we use basic drills to dial in rotation, balance, catch, etc to improve your Swimming Feels.
