Swimming Pic of the Week - Anatomy of a Trials Race

Posted by Glenn Mills on Jul 06, 2012 10:22AM (2,734 views)

I was forwarded this series of photos from last Saturday's Olympic Trials 100 free Finals.  These pictures feature Coach Rachel Stratton-Mills and the rest of the AGUA team watching Lia Neal swim her race.

As you go through the pictures, you can see the looks on the faces, almost pleading with Lia to get her hand on the wall... then the celebration when she did.  Just a great series of pictures.

Follow Coach Rachel on twitter.  Follow Lia Neal on twitter.  Heck... follow us on twitter.

We always perform our best when it's for someone we love.
