  • Swim Serpentine Training Plans
    Swim Serpentine Training Plans To swim one mile in a 25 metre pool you'll need to complete 64 lengths. If you're new to swimming, or are looking to improve, find out if there are any adult swimming sessions in your pool, perhaps a triathlon club or ‘Masters’ training session. These sessions are often welcoming and a great way to progress quickly. Often they also have a swimming coach on the pool side to provide set sessions for you, which can help with your technique. A swimming session should consist of a Warm up, Main Set, Contrast Set and Warm Down: Warm up: Gradually warm up your arms and lungs as you increase your pace over some short distances. Main Set: Typically a target distance broken down into shorter distances with short recovery times to help you work on your pace. For example: the target may be 1000 metres, so a simple session would be to swim 10 x 100 metres with one-minute rest between each four lengths (in a 25m pool). This way you can swim faster for the duration of the 100 metres than you would be able to over a straight 1000m swim. Contrast Set: After a main session the contrast set throws in some drills with perhaps some kick or stroke work. Warm down: A reverse of the Warm up, reduce your speed and think about technique. At other times you may go into the pool to complete a long distance swim, for example, to swim one mile non-stop and time yourself. One-mile pool training plan Train for Swim Serpentine using the following sample sets and drill suggestions.

  • Not Brecon Or Cardiff the Number of Competing Teams
    The Welsh Schools National Track & Field Championships – 50 years ago! The first of the Welsh Schools’ national track and field championships – for boys only – was held in June 1947, at Taff Vale Park in Pontypridd and, with the exception of 1984, they had been held each year up until 2019, which was the 72nd staging. Because of the current coronavirus pandemic regulations, the 2020 ‘nationals’ have rightly been cancelled. To give pupils, parents, teachers and volunteers a flavour of how things ‘used to be’, we provide an outline of what happened at the event 50 years ago – in 1970 The Date – not the first weekend in July Most of us associate the date of these ‘national’ championships with the first weekend in July but, for many years, they were held on the second weekend in July. In 1970, the event was held on Saturday, July 11th. The Venue – not Brecon or Cardiff Since 2001, the ‘nationals’ have been held either in Cardiff or at Penlan in Brecon. Prior to that year, the venue rotated around Wales. In 1970, the event was staged at Eirias Park in Colwyn Bay, Denbighshire – the fifth time that the event had been held there. This was a facility with a six lane cinder track. The venue on the north Wales coastline meant that competing teams from the south took nearly all of the Friday before the event to travel north in the team coach (or coaches) on roads not designed for high speed travel. Teams travelling from the south could not get to Colwyn Bay and back in a day, so they were ‘hosted’ by local residents and families in the area surrounding the venue.
