Volunteers Needed!!
A Kids of Steel Triathlon will be held at Uplands Base on Sunday, July 14th.  I will be swim coordinator and need 5-6 volunteers to help out with organizing heats, counting lengths, and cheering on the kids.  The time commitment will be 3 hours: 8:30-11:30am.   Please let me know if you can help!  As an added incentive, we're planning another underwater videotaping session (without the accompanying clinic) towards the end of August / beginning of September and those who help out will be entitled to free videotaping! 
 
 
Wednesday, June 26th Very Earlybirds / 7:30am Earlybirds
Our apologies to those Earlybirds who showed up on Wednesday, June 26th and were unable to swim due to technical difficulties (chlorine levels too low).  The 8:30am workout did go ahead.
 
 
Meech Lake 3km Swim
Please let me know by Friday, July 5th if you are interested in competing in the Technosport 3k Meech Lake swim to be held Saturday, July 13th at 9am at Blanchet Beach.  This event is open to all Masters swimmers and triathletes (you do not have to be registered with MSO).  Cost is $30 which includes breakfast in Chelsea after the swim.
 
 
End of Nightcaps Outing and Canada Day Party:  11 Nightcaps/Whitecaps went to the Arrow and Loon on Thursday, June 27th to celebrate the end of Nightcaps until September, when it will resume at the normal Tu/Th 8-9pm time.  Caroline and Coach John Waring's Canada Day party was a great success -- lots of great food, drink and conversation!  Special mention to the team of Ross, Corey, Pete L (Whitecaps), Carol S (Very Earlybirds), and Mike M for their win at Trivial Pursuit.
 
 
Mini Swim Camp:
If anyone would like to borrow the swimming videotape made at the Mini Swim Camp, just let me know.
 
 
New and Nearly New Swim Equipment For Sale:
There are still caps, a pair of goggles, and some women's suits available for sale.  The caps are priced at $1.  The goggles $4, and the suits $10-$20 at the buyer's discretion.  Ask to look at our "boutique"!

Time Trial and Relay Summary:
The information below on most improved and fastest swimmers is taken from the sprint Time Trials done June 17-26th, and also includes the 800/1500 time trials from June 13/14th, as well as the relay splits from June 27/28th.  Times done in competitions are not included.
 
There were some huge improvements, with seven women and five men improving by over 5sec/100m in one or more events!  The 3 most improved male swimmers all had greater than 15sec/100m improvements!!!  Mike B (EB1) took 10.1 seconds off his 50fs (he also greatly improved his 1500, but as we think he also quite a bit extra last time, I didn't count that one!).  Peter O (NC) took 8.3 seconds off his 50fs, and Anders (EB1) took 2:25 off his 800fs.  The 3 most improved female swimmers all improved between 8 and 9 sec/100m.  Penny (EB2) took 1:10 off her 800fs.  Cheri (NC) took 8.5 seconds off her 100IM, and Claire (EB2) took 2:02 off her 1500fs. 
 
The International Point Scores (link to web page below) are used to determine the best swims.  There were 14 women and 9 men who scored 400 points or more in at least one event.  Keegan (V) earned top honours by scoring over 700 points for both his 50fs and 50br!  John Waring (VC) was just under 700 in both 50fl and 50fs.  Lynn (MC) and Lisa G (NC) both scored over 600 points in 200bk and 50fs, respectively.  Morgan (V), Debbie O (WCA), and Patricia (WCA) all scored well over 500 in their 1500fs.  Richard I (WCA) and Don W (WCA) also broke 500 in 50fs and 1500fs, respectively.  Special congratulations to Kim K (WCB), for being the only Whitecaps "B" swimmer on the fastest swimmers list!
 
The results of all the relays are below -- thanks to everyone who participated!  Top honours in both the free relay and medley relay went to Whitecaps Team "5": Kim K, Lisa H, Richard I, and Rob V
 
Great job everyone!!

Race Reports and Swim Meets (please let me know if I've missed anyone or any races!)
 
Open Water Races:
There are two open water races (open to all) being held by Technosport in Meech Lake this summer -- a 3km race on July 13th and a 4km race on August 17th.  (Details on the July 13th swim are at the top of the newsletter.)
 
I also have the official entry forms for the MSO Ontario Open Water 5km Championships to be held in St. Marys Quarry (near Stratford) on Sunday, September 8th (the Sunday after Labour Day).  It's a fun swim (11 triangles) and a group from Toronto usually organizes an outing to Stratford on Saturday, plus a stay in a B&B near the quarry on Saturday night, as well as a mandatory stop at an ice cream parlour after the post-race feast!!  To participate in this race you must be a member of MSO.  Ask for details...

Ask the Coach

Dear Coach:  Can we do some more of the clinics in the last 15min of workout?  I'd like to work on my fly technique.  Want to Fly

Dear W. t. Fly:  Sure!  Now that the Spring time trials are complete, we can start up the lat 15min clinics.  We'll start with fly this week.  Let me know what other skills you and your team-mates would like to work on.

Weight Training for Swimmers: A six-hour program on strength training for swimmers was offered 11am-1pm Saturdays January 12th, 19th and February 2nd.  This course was poorly attended (4 people) and the Athletics department is reluctant to offer it again, unless attendance is up.  If you would be interested in this course next Fall, please let me know.  Also, let me know what time/day works best for you.
