1: Building a Triathlon Swim Program
Barbara Hummel
You know how to train and coach on land, but the pool is another
universe. Coach Barbara Hummel describes how you can build a swimming
program that's a magnet for triathletes as well as potential triathletes.
Her New Hampshire team has nearly tripled in size since 2003 by catering
not just to triathletes but also to Masters swimmers, fitness swimmers, and
tri wannabes who need lots of hands-on instruction. Barbara will talk about
the drills, the sets, and the philosophy that seem to make all these groups
happy, and that has brought more people into the sport of triathlon.
Barbara Hummel is a USAT Level 1 coach, head coach of a Masters swim
team, a marathoner and triathlete, and a Masters national champion in
swimming. She writes, edits, and produces videos for GoSwim.tv, and
has directed swimming clinics and week-long triathlon training camps.
