Hello—

PRACTICE—Normal this week!

NAPA RECAP—Fine swimming in crazy winter weather (but that’s how we like it!). We had some new ‘A’ times (Nico, Issac, Cameron, Esme) and Marina grabbed a new ‘BB’ time in the 100 Free! We also had a ton of new best times and gained a lot of valuable meet experience. Overall, a great meet for Tuna Nation—Full results <>

JUNIOR OLYMPICS!— This weekend in Walnut Creek. From TPC we have William Canori, Kai Makino, Cameron Forbes, and Fiona Bell who qualified in individual events. We also take swimmers who are close to the mark to fill our relays, so it should be a fun-filled, rocking weekend. Go TUNA!!

3/23 JASON LEZAK at RRC—If you don’t know who this guy is, take a moment to watch this relay (found in email) —regarded by some as one of the most exciting Olympic moments ever. One of my coaching colleagues told me he watches this video at the beginning of each season. Jason will be doing a clinic over at the Rafael Racquet Club. Check email for details and registration.

This will remain our schedule until mid June, when we switch to our summer schedule. There might be an occasional workout we need to switch because of a HS meet – if and when that happens we will give you a heads up.
• If your swimmer is a Far Western Qualifier – PLEASE EMAIL ME IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO ATTEND. This meet will be a coaches entry meet so please send me an email with which races you are planning to swim so I can get ahead on entries!
