Blog 2785: Miami Training day 2

Wooooooo suns out guns out!!! 24 degrees

Sorry just showing off a little there, it actually started off quite chilly at 17 degrees but the sun melted the clouds away and came to say hi, raising the temperature to 24 degrees.

A quality speed set in the morning (we have turned the training upside down as we have been moved around short course and long course) with lots of easy swimming in between and a nice very skillful aerobic loosen and recovery session in the afternoon.

Jon Rudd very kindly introduced Lana to Ruta. Ruta found Lana's reaction to meeting a current world record holder and Olympic champion very amusing. It has to be said that the British team have been excellent with our guys talking away and asking how their training is going etc, to the point where Liam Tancock asked Theo to show him what hes got on the sprint set after discussing Theos tweet of Liam the previous night. Look out for 3 tweets regarding our trip to the Ice hockey on Monday night. The teams are trying to get to meet the players and are each writing a tweet for this. The tweet with the most retweets will win bonus points for the team.

A trip to the beach for lunch after impressing Jon Rudd with the swimmers Yoga warm down then back to the pool for the afternoon. A few tired bodies a led to some upset tummies but after a good stretch and some kind words from the coach and everyone is ready to eat all they can pasta tonight ready for tomorrow mornings big set.

Its Bradleys 13th birthday tomorrow who knows whats in store.
