The Days of Taper Told in Photos<\/strong><\/p>\n

You know it, you love it, you look forward to it all year. Taper truly is a swimmer’s dream. Not only does it signal the fastest swimming of the year, it often leaves us with more energy than we’ve had all year. These photos tell the story of taper in a way that all swimmers know to be true.<\/p>\n

1. The Week Before<\/h2>\n

The most painful time of the year is easily the week leading up to taper. Those last few hard workouts are often the most\u00a0brutal of the season.<\/p>\n

2. The First Day Confusion<\/h2>\n

Okay, so this is likely harder than you remember it. You forgot that just because taper has started doesn’t mean you’re swimming a 500 and then going home.<\/p>\n

3. A\u00a0Few Days In<\/h2>\n

You forgot what it was like to feel so awake! You’re likely overflowing with energy, but know you can’t use it, which is much harder than you expected.<\/p>\n

4. The Broken Swim<\/h2>\n

Self esteem<\/a> and confidence are likely soaring at this point. You can’t wait to get to the meet and show off what you’ve worked on.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0Questioning Your Taper<\/h2>\n

Oh no… are you too ready? Did you let off too early? The panicking has likely set in as the meet gets closer, but just relax and trust\u00a0your coach and your training<\/a>.<\/p>\n

6. The Day Before<\/h2>\n

Your energy, nerves, and excitement are overflowing. You have never been so ready to get in and race with all that extra energy you’ve been saving up.<\/p>\n

7. The First Race<\/h2>\n

It is finally time to get on the block and race. You couldn’t be more excited to get in that pool shaved, tapered, and ready to go.<\/p>\n

8. The Last Race<\/h2>\n

You’re likely\u00a0relying on your teammates to carry you through at this point. You’re ready to finish off this meet strong, but last week’s energy seems crazy.<\/p>\n

9. After the Meet<\/h2>\n

Tired, exhausted, and ready for a whole lot of sleep. Goodbye taper, hello bed.<\/p>\n
