Like Toes In The Water, pool swimming can be a timely matter.
When a coach says, “Go on this top” while pointing to a pace clock, it has a completely different meaning than “go on the next top” – especially to a swimmer doing tough, lung-busting, heart-pounding interval training in a pool.
“Go on this 60 ” versus “go on the next 60” gives the swimmer a reprieve for an entire minute. Those extra 60 seconds are always welcomed.
