Day 2 continued.........



I am having to do the posts a bit at a time as I am limited as to how much I can put on a post, so please scroll through to make sure you've seen them all!!

Everyone met at the designated area (on time!!) however a couple of swimmers had forgotten a few pieces of kit, namely pull buoys and kick boards, so they were sent back to their rooms to collect them and upon return were awarded a number of press ups, in the hope they wouldn't forget them again!!

Before hitting the pool, everyone did a 20 min land warm up consisting of stretches and general warm up exercises, the group are working really well together, however the list of 'mishaps' is continuously growing hour by hour!

Then, at 4pm it was time to 'hit the water!' Swimmers were split into their lanes and they were off! Pioneer 79 Swim Camp 2014 had got underway! At the beginning of the session, the clouds had again congregated over corralejo. However, by the end of the session (6pm) the evening sunshine had returned.

It was great to see every swimmer completing their first session of the camp with plenty of smiles and no swimmers were put off by the shock of training in a 50m pool for the first time. (Of which there were a few!)
