Day 1 Heats 100free: 1.03 added a second, but my underwaters improved and my coach said I seem more concentrated. I figured I need to work on my endurance but this a a qualifying time for SA sc nationals, so decently happy 50bk: 34 stayed on my time, I think I added a 0.3 or something, this felt pretty good. My start felt amazing but I did miss count my strokes and glided a bit too much for bothe the turn and finish (weirdly enough all the girls in my club had the exact same problem and even some of the other clubs did) 100IM: 1.17 stayed on my time, well I took off splits but it was like 0.2. There wasn't any oxygen in the pool but otherwise it felt OK, not necessarily strong and again I fumbled a bit on the backstroke finish Finals: 100 free 1.03 swam splits faster and came 2nd by 0.4 my underwaters felt better and you could breath more as they finally opened the doors. I slowed down q bit on my last lap and chocked on water twice but all in all I'm happy with the result 50bk : added splits and came 3rd My underwaters felt once gain better and the turn was better too the finish not so much. I realize my arms could have more power and my kick too. 100 IM same time, kept my head down and went for it. My coach says he want to turn me into an IM swimmer, he says my breaststroke improved and I'm gliding better. I counted my strokes and I did 9. The gala before I did 11. Yes happy happy Day 2 Heats 200 free 2.27 added 5 seconds, there was so much stream and my lungs collapsed on the first 50, I made it to finals ranked 4th, my underwaters were ok but far from the best 100 bk 1.15 dropped a second but my coach was mad at me because I went slow. The steam was actually so bad I cooked on water twice and coughed but water as I got out. My turns were better than the day before 50 free 28.13 added 0.14 happy with my time bit disnt kick enough the last 15 meters I think I took 3 breaths and I had a okish reaction time Finals 200 free 2.23 took off 4 of the 5 seconds that I added and came 3rd, it oxygen was a bit better and my turns flet ok, and once again my couch and I agreed that I need endurance training

Competition, the last before summerbreak
Today was my last competition before summerbreak. I caught a cold just two days before the comp and didn‘t know if anything would work out. Still I have all and I‘m pretty happy with the outcome. My races today were 200 free, 100free, 50 free and 100 IM. I started out with 200 free and swam it the second time in my life. This time I tried to start out faster and finish fast. Because of my cold, I think, I had no breath at the end and lost Speed Inserat if increasing Speed. Nevertheless I finished 6 seconds faster than last time (2:45,17) The second Race was 50 free. I finally left the stupid 33 behind and swam 31.29 at the exact Same Pool where I got my first 33! So I got a 2 second Pb. Third was 100 free I didn‘t Swim it for almost a year because of different reasons. I was in a slower Heat because of that gap, my last time was a 1:17. today I swam a 1.13,06. I think I could have been faster but I‘m happy with the 4 seconds faster. Last was 100 IM I now was teures and had a headache but tried to go fast. It Kind of didn‘t work out. I was 4 hundreds faster but that doesb‘t really count. I know I have to work on my back and breast Part and will do that. So today was a good experience to go in Break now and to be motivated to start out better After Summer than today.

Why Your Swimmer Only Swims Fast When They Taper (Swimpros News #25)
Most swimmers quit the exact thing that was making them faster, right when it starts working… In this one we break down why that happens, why a tapered PB should become the new normal, and the real reason a 100 stops dropping. Here's what's inside: 👉 The habit fast swimmers quit the second it starts working 👉 The taper trap keeping your swimmer two seconds slow 👉 The real reason their 100 freestyle stopped improving 👉 What Phelps and Marchand do on their bad days Watch here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfiiJRhuYdM And I have to make a confession in the comments below 😪

Second was 50m manequin rescue and I also got a 3 second pb .My usually best race, manequin rescue with fins I had trouble and had minus 1 second to my pb. The manequin was slippery and I almost lost it In the End I was third of 27 and very happy about it. Sunday Team comp: My Team did pb in each race We have to do Four relays. In the end we were first, hessian Champions. So we go to German Nationals with out Team. I Hope that I also can Go to the German Nationals for Singles.
