getting back in the pool

by Jeremiah @ Jeremiah's Tri Training Experience
Beverly and I joined the Los Gatos Masters Swimming program last week. It's taught/guided by Pete Kain. This is my first time in a masters program, and I am looking forward to the experience. Swimming is my weakest sport (from a Triathlon point) thus the area that I need the most work on. We meet at the pool at 6am weds & fridays and after 3 meeting thus far, I feel like I am getting stronger in the pool. Last week, Bev was talking to me about my stroke and how I needed to reach over the barrel. This has helped out a lot and I feel like I have more power in my stroke. Today we worked on kick drills. I am horrible at kicking. My feet drag and I dont feel like I am moving forward. That means I need to work on my core. Strong core = straight back which will help bring my legs up.
