Hi all, new to the group. I have been swimming since I was 2, was in swim teams in elementary school. Lately doing open water swimming and races. I am too slow, and I dont know what I am doing wrong. I have endurance down and can swim miles without fatigue, never get anxious in the water and am almost more at home there than anywhere else!!. Just don't know what is wrong with my mechanics or technique. Can anyone recommend a really good experienced coach in Northern NJ who can assess my stroke and provide some guidance and coaching? Also, recommendations for club in Northern NJ area? I work full time so that is a consideration. I do mostly triathlon relays as I do not bike but I swim and run.
Many thanks!
My goal is to improve my time in open water swim races as well as to be able to accomplish more during my pool workouts. Endurance is no problem, just the technique needs work. I do have a full time job but can be flexible as needed. early mornings or evenings are optimal. I am going to see if I can attend a masters coaching session by Jeff Jotz in Rahway, and maybe see if he can give me a private session as well. Thanks all!
I practice with Jeff when I can get up earlier enough, he holds practice 6-7:30 at the address below Mon.-Fri., I may be there tomorrow ($8 a practice).
Outdoor summer Long Course Meters workouts will be held at the Ulrich Pool Rahway River Park Rahway, NJ beginning Monday, June 23rd
