It’s time to get your sprint on!
This practice was made for the splashers and dashers of the world. The ones who have a need for speed. The key to this practice is to focus on your walls, breakouts, and not breaking the last two or three strokes in and out of your turns, even when you’re feeling the lactic acid burn. You’ve got this!!
