Executing the Perfect Race \u2013 Harry Potter & Swimming<\/strong><\/p>\n

When the first Harry Potter<\/strong> book was released in 1997, no one could have predicted the incredible success the books and movies would achieve. Today, Harry Potter is the best-selling book series in history<\/a>, with the last four setting records as the fastest-selling books ever. As we followed the adventures of Harry, Ron and Hermione, we learned a lot \u2013 about courage, friendship, loyalty and truth. Those lessons can be translated to the pool, and can even help us execute the perfect race.<\/p>\n

“Their daring, nerve and chivalry set Gryffindor apart\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Being nervous before our races is normal, even expected. But when you get up on the blocks, waiting for the starter\u2019s whistle or beep, you are taking a leap of faith. It takes courage to race. Harry Potter teaches us that everything we want is on the other side of fear. Ron had to face his fear of spiders to rescue Hermione in the Chamber of Secrets. Harry had to get over his fear of Dementors. Mrs. Weasley actually had to live her fear of losing a dear family member. It is in times of nervousness and fear that we find out who we really are \u2013 and it is no different in the swimming world. The only way that we will know where we stand is if we take that first step \u2013 getting on the blocks. Besides, Gryffindor<\/strong> reminds us to bring out our competitive and team spirit!<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere those of wit and learning, will always find their kind\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Come race day, it is crucial to have a plan for your race. While it may not always feel necessary to have that strategy, sometimes it can be the difference between a great swim and just missing a cut. As swimmers grow up, race execution becomes more and more important. Ravenclaws<\/strong> have a \u201cready mind.\u201d They analyze all possible situations and outcomes. This is crucial for swimmers. It is in our best interest to analyze what we did well and what we did not so well after every practice and race. That way, when the championship meet rolls around, we know exactly what we have to do, both in terms of split times and race strategy.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor Hufflepuff, hard workers were most worthy of admission\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Doesn\u2019t that line perfectly sum up swimmers? Are we not patient, training for hours and hours only to race for a maximum of 15 minutes? Hufflepuff teaches us the importance of putting in our best effort every single day, whether or not we feel like it. We train hard every day in the pool and this hard work translates to success in meets and personal bests. The traits that Helga Hufflepuff<\/strong> looked for in her students \u2013 diligence, the ability to work hard, untiring commitment \u2013 are all traits that are shared by successful swimmers.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026 use any means to achieve their ends\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Slytherins<\/strong> are resourceful. They find ways to make things work. If our goggles fill up with water, or fall off on the dive, we know that we still have to finish. We must have prepared for every eventuality in practice \u2013 so that if something does not go our way at crunch time, we do not lose hope. Bob Bowman<\/strong><\/a> frequently presented scenarios to Michael Phelps<\/strong> that forced him to deal with the moment in an instant. Slytherins are also known for their determination and for being great leaders. Much of racing is a mental game, so determination, grit and sheer will power go a long way in improving our mental approach to races.<\/p>\n

All in all, the four houses of the Potter wizarding world \u2013 Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin<\/a> \u2013 teach us how to construct a perfect race. From the training that goes into having a good race, to planning out a swim, to battling nerves before a race and preparing for any unforeseen circumstances, the Hogwarts houses all have traits that we as swimmers should try to emulate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
