Preparation

Hi everyone,

Its been a while since I posted so I figured I should update you on how the swim team is doing with preparing for AUS and CIS Championships!

With our conference championships 6 days away, our taper is starting to take effect. Everyone is getting extra rest and its really starting to show in practice! This time of the season is exciting because we're all chipping away at our times and the anticipation is building for the swim meet. Its critical at this time that the athletes get sufficient sleep, eat healthy and rest. On the academic side of things, midterm season has begun, and finding the balance between studying and resting is something we must perfect.

On a different topic... a shoutout to the swimmers who have been involved in Reading with the REDS this semester- well done! Its great seeing my teammates volunteering and getting involved in the community!

Make sure to "like" UNB Swimming on Facebook for even more info on the team. Our team roster didn't make it on vreds.ca this year, but you can check out roster pictures on our Facebook page!

Good luck to the other VReds teams competing this weekend, especially for the Think Pink games which are raising funds for breast cancer research!

I'll be in touch again during our AUS Championships at Dalhousie!
