My swimming career deserves better

Posted by Kevin Doak on Saturday at: 12:20am (December 10th, 2011)

I need to preview this post with, the coaches and the CW program as a whole has done as much as they could to help me during this time.  They have gone out of their way to enable me to get the best workout as possible while being separate from the group.  I said it directly to the coaches today... "thank you for being accomodating regarding this situation", I think it was well received.

That being said, his training situation is a real disapointment, and by no fault of the coaches.  Today my warmup and then main set was interrupted three times, asking me to move locations in the pool area.  This process was the only way to adhere to the rules set by the lack of training waiver.  I ended up in the 15 meter pool trying to do a set the rest of the swimmers were swimming in a 25 yard pool.  I feel distractions everywhere.  All week I've been unable to just focus on my workout.  I'm very frustrated with the situation.

I'm getting nearly nothing out of this training program lately.  Once again, this has nothing to do with the coaches.  It's just a horrible situation, and it's nobody's fault.  Just a real downer.  My overall feeling is that my swimming career deserves better.
