WITH ONE OF THE PREMIER DISTANCE COACHES IN THE COUNTRY. Led by NC
State DISTANCE COACH DAN KESLER, the DISTANCE & Open WATER SERIES IS
DESIGNED FOR SWIMMERS LOOKING TO DEVELOP ENDURANCE, pacing, and race
strategy for DISTANCE AND OPEN WATER EVENTS. Each week will also
feature a GUEST COACH FROM THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF DISTANCE AND OPEN
WATER TRAINING AND COMPETITION. Each session includes 15 minutes of
targeted injury prevention and activation, followed by 90 minutes of
focused in-WATER TRAINING. Two sessions will emphasize DISTANCE-based
training to push athletes’ limits on pacing control, endurance, and
race strategy. One session will be dedicated entirely to open WATER
SKILLS, with lane lines removed and buoys placed in the pool to
simulate open WATER RACING CONDITIONS. Sessions conclude with a weekly
20–30 minute discussion covering proper fueling, recovery
strategies, and mental preparation specific to DISTANCE AND OPEN WATER
ATHLETES. This 3 session clinic SERIES IS OPEN TO ANYONE INTERESTED IN
DISTANCE OR OPEN WATER SWIMMING, including triathletes. Athletes will
leave each session challenged, better prepared, and equipped with
practical tools to apply directly to training and competition.Event
