Swim Camp

Today is my first day back in the office after 3 weeks of swimming camp at Hamilton College. Coaching at swim camp is always fun because it allows me to work with swimmers of a different age range than what I'm used to. It's also a change of pace in that the Hamilton camp is a technique camp, not a training camp. This gives the coaches working it a chance to focus solely on teaching swimming, something most college coaches wish they had more time to do with their own teams during the season. Finally, it's fun for me to go back to the place I did my own college swimming and enjoy the great summertime weather in upstate New York, which is very different from upstate New York in the winter (which lasts about 6 months by the way).

Back in VA. Back to work. Go Jackets!
