by John Lohn
“World Record Flashback” travels back nearly 50 years to the 1976 Olympic Games.

In the event not captured by Team USA, Great Britain’s David Wilkie put on a spectacular show.

COACHING

036 SWIMMING TECHNIQUE CONCEPTS: NEWTON’S LAWS OF MOTION

040 SPECIAL SETS: KATE DOUGLASS—BUILDING ON BASICS
by Michael J. Stott
Oftentimes, the best gift a coach can give an athlete is the skills to succeed later on. And when the athlete builds on those basics through a work ethic of application, grit, talent and determination, the results can be affirming—for coach and athlete—and even life changing, as is the case with Coach Carle Fierro and swimmer Kate Douglass.
