It was a busy weekend for #teamlarne athletes with three different meets happening and our athletes competing all over Europe.
Aquasprint
The youngest members of our club took part in their next Aquasprint meet. This time racing against Leander Swimming Club.
With the focus of these meets on short fast swimming and lots of noise and enjoyment the result is always a secondary issue.
It is fantastic to see that the junior swimmers love to swim so much and are so supportive of each other.
The future of our club is in safe hands
Glasgow International
Kaitlyn McCaw travelled to Scotland to take part in the Glasgow International Meet in Tollcross pool.
This was Kaitlyn’s 1st representative meet and comes in the middle of a heavy block of work both in the pool and finishing her dissertation for Uni.
Kaitlyn raced 4 events and qualified for 2nd swims in all 4 making for 8 swims in 3 days. The final of the 50 fly was undoubtedly the highlight
Kaitlyn is proof that if you love swimming, there is no reason why you cannot swim past school. Having taken 6 years out of the sport to concentrate on studies Kaitlyn now has a big summer ahead of her.
Mare Nostrum
Last but by no means least, Danielle travelled to Barcelona to race on Wednesday and Thursday and then on to Canet o race Saturday and Sunday
The Mare Nostrum tour is the best athletes from around the world racing head to head over 3 meets in 8 days.
Once again D was swimming through these meets with her eyes set on a much bigger summer.
Contesting in 4 events at each meet and making finals in them all ment that Danielle raced 16 swims in 5 days. #tough
If Kaitlyn is proof that if you don’t have to stop swimming at the end of school, Danielle if the role model that hard work will always pay off
Great racing guys now for an exciting summer
