From the changes in her dryland routine, as different equipment and programs came available, to seeing meets like Canadian Olympic Trials and the Tokyo Olympics <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/stars-react-restrategize-after-postponement-of-canadian-olympic-trials\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">postponed<\/a>, Sanchez picked up a new resilience in the face of adversity.<\/p>\n<p>She\u2019s drawing on that toughness, especially on the mental side of things, now that she\u2019s rehabbing from a long-standing shoulder injury.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s easy to kind of look at the calendar and start to map out everything ahead of you,\u201d the Canadian sprinter told <em>Swimming World<\/em> this week. \u201cBut personally, I have to kind of not look ahead.

She\u2019s trained through pain, via workouts accounting for the weakness in her shoulder, for a while. When pain flared this summer, imaging revealed tears in her labrum and rotator cuff. A surgery she had hoped to put off until after the Tokyo Games happened in late September, and Sanchez is in the middle of an aggressive rehab to regain strength and return to the water.<\/p>\n<p>Just when swimmers are getting back to work after the lengthy, COVID-19-forced layoff, it may seem an inopportune time to be out of action. But the 19-year-old is still processing the benefits from an unplanned summer hiatus and has time to incorporate them into her rehab. Her mindset is stronger for having weathered an unprecedented summer, and she feels like she\u2019s in \u201cthe right place\u201d mentally to handle a rehab that, less than a year out from the start of the Olympics, could be scary timing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was different to have the season end short and to take a step back,\u201d Sanchez said. \u201cIt was nice to kind of reset the mindset, take the time for myself, focus on whatever training I could do and just be in the best possible shape for returning to the pool.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sanchez is a big piece in a resurgent Canadian women\u2019s program poised to be a big factor in the Tokyo medals conversation. The native of Scarborough, Ontario, was part of two bronze-winning freestyle relays at the 2019 World Championships and two silver-medal relays at the 2018 Commonwealth Games. She\u2019s one of the younger members of a cresting wave of Canadian talent, a valuable relay cog (including, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/for-brent-hayden-comeback-is-about-falling-in-love-with-swimming-again\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">with the un-retirement<\/a> of <strong>Brent Hayden,<\/strong> in mixed relays) and a potential individual qualifier in several events.<\/p>\n<p>Sanchez was also a key figure in a historic inflection point in the Canadian program, the 2017 World Junior Championships. She was part of three gold-medal relays in Indianapolis (including prelims of the medley relay) and helped the 400 and 800 freestyle relays <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/canada-scorches-womens-800-free-relay-world-junior-record\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">set world junior records<\/a>. Individually, she claimed silver in the 200 individual medley and bronze in the 100 free.<\/p>\n<p>That meet was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/at-world-junior-champs-taylor-ruck-returns-to-budding-stardom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">a coming-out party<\/a> for swimmers like <strong>Taylor Ruck, Rebecca Smith<\/strong> and <strong>Jade Hannah,<\/strong> with <strong>Penny Oleskiak<\/strong> already an established star for her efforts in Rio the previous summer. When talk of the meet was broached, Sanchez laughed in recalling her fondness for that squad.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c2017 World Juniors was, definitely for me, one of my favorite memories,\u201d she said. \u201cI had so much fun racing with the girls that I trained with. It was just really cool to be able to step up, us four, and just show everyone what we could do. I\u2019ll always be proud of them and they\u2019re such hard workers. It was such an amazing meet.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_275119\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-275119\" data-attachment-id=\"275119\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/for-canadian-kayla-sanchez-shoulder-rehab-means-taking-it-one-day-at-a-time\/kayla-sanchez\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/vmrw8k5h.tinifycdn.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/kayla-sanchez-jr-worlds-2017-6957.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2400,1800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Peter H.

Bick<\/p><\/div>\n<p>More than nostalgia, meets like that have consequences for the present. The thought of relay medals hangs in the future for Sanchez. The community established among the burgeoning crop of Canadians was instrumental during the pandemic shutdowns, with swimmers like <strong>Kylie Masse<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/kylie-masse-finding-time-to-improve-lead-during-olympic-postoponement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">stepping to the fore to keep athletes<\/a> supported and together, even if they couldn\u2019t physically be in the same place.<\/p>\n<p>It comes with a balance for Sanchez as she heals. She has to deal with disappointment; missing out on <a href=\"https:\/\/torontotitans.club\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">the inaugural season<\/a> for the Toronto Titans in the ISL, for which she was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/toronto-titans-add-kayla-sanchez-michael-chadwick-to-roster\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">one of the earliest and highest-profile signings<\/a>, is one such obstacle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had so much fun at ISL last year,\u201d the former <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/isl-championship-live-results-energy-standard-edges-london-roar-in-thrilling-finish\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">member of Energy Standard said<\/a>. \u201cI loved it. And when they announced the new Toronto team, I was excited, I almost couldn\u2019t believe it. So I\u2019m sad I\u2019m not going and there\u2019s definitely FOMO, but I\u2019m super excited to watch and see the team move through the regular season and just see how it works, because it\u2019ll be different from last year with the bubble format and everything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But her one-day-at-a-time mentality means she can\u2019t get ahead of herself. She\u2019s looking forward to being on the same pool deck as her Canadian mates, competing with and against them, representing the country together, hopefully on swimming\u2019s biggest stage. But as she heals, her gaze is trained squarely on daily physio appointments and strength exercises in the present for that future to materialize.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re so excited and we can\u2019t wait to race, but right now, we have to focus on training, take it day-by-day,\u201d Sanchez said. \u201cMake sure that we\u2019re working hard together, we\u2019re staying happy, we\u2019re staying healthy and we can see what happens in Tokyo.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the three months that she spent out of the pool during COVID-19 lockdowns, Kayla Sanchez learned how to take things one day at a time.
