There is now officially less than one month until I leave for Florida training camp! Sunday, February 18th, I’ll be flying down to Florida to start an intense two month training program.

The first three weeks of my time in Florida will be spent training on the Indian and Banana Rivers in Cape Canaveral. This part of the camp will be with the Senobe Aquatic Club where I will have the opportunity to train with many very fast competitors whose ages range up to 23. This will be a great jumpstart for the 2024 racing season for me, since I will be able to push myself against competitors who are trying to qualify for the 2024 and 2028 Olympics. 

I will then drive two hours further north to Palm Coast where I will spend the next five weeks training with the Ontario team It allows me to train with some of my local competitors and train my K2 with the partner who I hope to qualify for Junior worlds with. In the last two weeks of this eight week camp, there are a number of high quality U18 athletes who will all centralize at the Ontario team camp, which gives me a great opportunity to compare myself to my competition before we go home for another two months of training before national team trials in June.
