Only three of this group had been competing over the weekend, though several others do compete. A ‘Basic Aerobic’ programme: slowest speed training, technique work, long distance swims and drills. Come 16 x 25m around 5″ rest was taken, as lane clear, rather than longer. Most covered the distance in the hour. Two lanes out of six.
