Hi everyone! I am planning to go to my very first (all of my life, I was never a swimmer) meet this month...and am freaking out already!!!!! Maybe I should back out before it's too late? See, I am not all that fast and have never performed a start dive from a block.:shakeshead: Our Master's coach is not all that great, he is a nice man just as a coach I don't think I benefit all that much. To my question of how to make my breaststroke faster his response was "Drink more coffee"!!!:frustrated: I did get a private coach to help me but not sure if that's enough..... What should I do? Are all the odds against me? I was looking forward to this meet when it was 2-3 months away, but now......The meet is in 3 weeks..... Help!!!!!:notworthy:
Thank you all!!!!!:notworthy: :notworthy:
FindingMyInnerFish - I don't think you are a "grandma"! Sorry if that came out a wrong way!!!!
Not to worry! I figured you were just quoting someone else, not expressing your own opinion. Anyway, I do this for fun, no matter! Grandma power, ha! :groovy:
Good luck in your meet! Let us know how it goes! Maybe sometime I'll even take courage in hand and try a block dive sometime. But whatever I decide, I'm good with it.
