Using the VJ test to identify swimmers likely to excel in sprint or distance events may not only improve performance at an early age, but also avoid losing sprinters who are averse to distance training and distance swimmers who are discouraged by sprinting.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>041 Q&amp;A WITH COACH BYRON MacDONALD<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>by Michael J.
