Coach Gwynn Harrison, Bridgewater College
This is a test we do at least 1/season (often 2). I keep all results and have an all-time spread sheet of overall time and times for each effort. This way, swimmers can compare progress from 1st-2nd semester, as well as over course of career at Bridgewater. It started as a way to get the swimmers more comfortable on the blocks, and more able to swim back to back events during dual meets. Mostly, its a mental challenge because it is all the individual events of a college dual meet (short order) back to back, all best effort. I try to do it toward the end of our overload training period to mark the occasion 🙂 Though they complain about it – it occupys a positive tradition in our program
