Swim Squad Articles & Emails
The first three months of the year have seen quite a few articles written and sent out via email and on social media. The aim of these articles is to educate, guide, inspire, reassure, and celebrate success.
- Have you enjoyed them?

Over the next few weeks we have an emphasis on Open Water Swimming and Triathlon Race Execution. Hopefully some race reports and great news stories too!

I suppose my questions (as well as the ones above about whether you like the posts and whether they are useful), are:
- Is there anything you would like to see more (or less) of?
- Are there any topics you would like covering or do you have any questions you would like an answer to?
- Do you have a story to tell?
If you could take a moment to feedback and help shape the content of our blog posts and emails, that would be amazing!
