California (PA) Swim Camp - Update 6/23/11

This is part of a continuing series as we will follow five swimmers from Jersey Shore and Lock Haven to see how they fare at the California (PA) Swim Camp. This is their comments from Wednesday.

McCartney R. - This morning we all got up at 5:30 AM to go to the optional morning workout. We were all really tired! In the morning workout we didn't focus on technique, but more on getting in some yardage for the day because in the other swim sessions are mainly technique.

Sam K. - having a lot of fun with resting and it will be a lot of fun going to Dairy Queen

Emma B.- today is a "afternoon break day." We are going to Dairy Queen then we are watching the movie, Despicable Me. We are doing that instead of swimming to take a break.

Gabby M.- Today breaststroke was the stroke of the day. It is a "short-axis" stroke where you rotate on your through your waist. We focused mostly on the kicking and rotating through our waist.

KendraW.-Today was our very first dryland practice and we played octopus. I am a very good runner and the coaches that played with us could not catch me because I have really short and muscular legs.
