Welcome back to my ‘Paralympics Years’ blog page where I will be releasing a series of different sets we did during those Paralympic Years – from Sam in Beijing 2008, to Ollie and Charlotte in both London 2012, and Rio 2016.

This next set is another one we did with Sam & the A squad in Mansfield June 2008 – a couple of months out from the Beijing 2008 Paralympic Games. The target times for each 100 & 200 repeats were based on each swimmers step test data (7×200 at the time). The entire main set equated to 2800m.
