Much has been said about the situation revolving around the outbreak of the coronavirus. Needless to say, everyone has been affected one way or another. It makes one appreciate what we had before and what we hope to have once again.
This issue will offer a wide range of topics. One in particular was written by Wayne Goldsmith for Swimming World publications. We felt that it was appropriate to the current situation that many programs are facing today. For those of you that have not seen this article, it is enclosed (with Wayne’s permission) as a link. 
  1. “Can’t Swim? Here are 25 Things You CAN Do To Stay In The Zone and & Get Fighting Fit” by Wayne Goldsmith
