17th Late Opening / Apr 21st
Filming
Our apologies to some 6:30am
swimmers who went home thinking that there was no swimming on Mon Apr
17th (Easter Monday). The control desk staff was very late and
as doors were propped open and then later closed, some found their way in and
some didn’t.
Thanks to the 8:30am
swimmers on Fri Apr 21st who all agreed to be filmed. This
footage will be used in a video to encourage students to attend

Time Trial and Relay
Summary:
The information below on most
improved and fastest swimmers is taken from the time trials done during
the Winter session, and includes the relay splits from the end of term
relays. Times done in competitions are not included. If
your times are not listed here and you're curious, just e-mail me for
details. (I have all time trial times since May
2001.)
There were 32 women and 18
men who improved in at least one event! Eight swimmers improved by over 10
sec / 100m in at least one event! Leading the way was Lucille P (Nightcaps) improving by 19 sec
in 100br. Vanessa W
(Whitecaps “B”) improved her 1500 by nearly 4 min and Megan L (8:30am Earlybirds) improved her
50fl by 7.7 sec, giving them a tie for second with a 15.4 sec / 100m
improvement. Next was Colette
K (8:30am Earlybirds) improving her 50fl by 6.7 sec (13.4 sec /100m),
followed closely by Sandra A
(8:30am Earlybirds) who improved her 100fs by 13.2 sec. The top male was
Rob S (Nightcaps) who improved his 1500fs by just over 3 min (12.1
sec/100m). Suzanne L
(Whitecaps “B”) improved her 800fs by over 1.5 min (12.0 sec/100m), and Lauren D (Whitecaps “A”) improved her 50fs
by 5.5 sec (11.0/100m). Four other swimmers improved by over 5 sec / 100m:
Leona C (7:30am Earlybirds),
Melanie S (Whitecaps “B”),
Francois P (Whitecaps “A”), and
Matt T (7:30am Earlybirds).
Great job!
The International Point Scores (link
to web page below) are used to determine the best swims. There
were 18 women (15 non-staff) and 20 men (19 non-staff) scoring 400
points or above in at least one event. Five swimmers scored over 600
points. Blair C (Whitecaps
“A”) led the way with 670 points for his 200fl. Ben D (Whitecaps “A”) was next with 632
points for 50fs. Barb P
(8:30am Earlybirds) was the top woman with 620 points for 1500fs, followed
closely by Kelys M and Laura S (both Whitecaps “A”) with 615 and
611 points respectively for 50fs (just 0.1 sec difference).
Congratulations all, especially those making the fastest swimmer list for the
first time!
The top 3 improvements and the top 3
times for each event are also listed below, as are the results of the
relays. Thanks to all who participated, and to the anonymous swimmer who
left a chocolate bar and swim ribbon in my swim bag on Fri Apr
21st!

Ask the
Coach
Dear
Coach: Can you remind me of the
pools you recommended during the Carleton pool closure? Another Keen
Swimmer
Dear A.K. Swimmer: Two good
pools (cool-ish water temperature, lots of lane-only swimming) are the Ottawa U
pool and the
Dear
Coach: Can you send me the most
recent newsletter, as I accidentally deleted mine? Careless
Swimmer
Dear C. Swimmer: I don’t mind
doing this if I’m not too busy, but if your request is urgent, don’t forget that
the newsletters are posted on the web site: http://carletonmasters.tripod.com.
Dear
Coach: I’m having trouble with my
backstroke. What do you suggest? Weak
Backstroker
Dear W. Backstroker: Ask your
coach to have a look and give you some tips. Common backstroke problems
include:
Body
position: Keep your head low in the water and
look up at the ceiling (not towards your feet) to help keep your hips/legs
up
Body
roll: Swim with a good body roll, keeping
each shoulder out of the water as long as possible to minimize
drag.
Arm
movement: Catch the water with a high elbow –
bending your arm after it enters the water makes this
easier.
Arm
timing: Ensure that there is a significant
overlap between the arms so that one is always generating
propulsion.
Dear
Coach: One of my shoulders hurts
after I swim. Any suggestions? Sore
Swimmer
Dear S. Swimmer: When an ache
develops on one side, it indicates that there is an asymmetry in your
stroke. Quite often this is due to breathing on only one side in
freestyle. It’s very important to breath on both sides to avoid
injury. Also, do ask your coach to look at your stroke to check your
stroke mechanics.

on the web site.

it.
