Sending a REAL big thank you to everyone who sent me messages of support. My smile is back. 🥰

Let me make one thing clear. Rude comments from random haters don’t rattle me. I brush them off without hesitation. Those people don’t know me. In fact, they fuel my fire to speak out louder in the fight for acceptance - for fat people, for black people, for the LGBTQIA+ community, for Jewish people, for every person in a marginalized group.

Nobody deserves to be attacked like that.

What really disturbs me is knowing that there are so many hateful people in the world and how the current climate empowers them to hate out loud without regard to others. What’s even worse are people I know in person who choose to be so cruel.

Don’t you worry… I won’t let any of that stop me from shining!

Be Proud. Be REAL. Keep Moving Forward.💛💙

Here’s where many Masters Swim programs miss the mark:

“U.S. Masters Swimming’s mission is to empower adults to improve their lives through swimming. We cater to any adult - 18 and over - who wants to swim.”
(source USMS.org)

So why are programs telling swimmers they have to swim 2:00/100 to join? Why are they making swimmers feel like they’re not good enough?

At my practices I offer leveled workouts and provide instruction to support your swim goals, whether you want to do your first triathlon, compete in meets or OWS races, or train for fitness.

We’re celebrating one year of inclusive Masters Swimming at the Old Colony YMCA in Stoughton.

Try a class for free in September. Full schedule begins Oct 17th. DM me BLACKLINE for more info.

REAL big goals achieved !

Karen completed her first sprint triathlon at age 68 and she just learned how to swim freestyle last year!

Evelyn completed her first Olympic distance Aquabike.

Liz finished her first half distance triathlon at IMWI70.3! We fit in just enough training to get her over the finish line despite intermittent back issues and a hectic working mom schedule.

Allison had a strong showing at the Pumpkinman Sprint triathlon.

Mercedes completed the Title 9 Sprint triathlon as fun cross training for her upcoming marathon.

💛💙

They’re already thinking about what goals to chase next year. Are you? Send me a DM to chat about your goals.

Coaches don’t schedule recovery days because we ran out of workouts.

Nope. Your body needs that time to rebuild and get ready.

You may hear athletes joking about Taper Tantrums, but here’s what nobody is telling them. (Save this for your next race)

Taper is the period of about 7-10 days before your race. It’s the time to relax, celebrate that you completed your training program and prepare to take your victory lap (that’s the race).

Think about it, you’ve trained hard for weeks, months, even years to prepare for what is coming up. Your body and brain are tired.

Take the rest you need so you’re ready to show up for what you’ve been training for.

If you’re feeling antsy, write your race plan, connect with friends you haven’t seen much lately and grab a journal to reflect on how awesome you are.

How do you feel about taper?
