Passing of Jason Coyle

As many of you have heard, our dear friend and fellow Masters swimmer Jason Coyle passed away at the pool during practice last Thursday evening due to a medical event. We are deeply saddened at his sudden passing and our hearts pour out to his wife Anita, who is also a Masters swimmer and to their 4 young children. 

Jason was a life-long swimmer, an English teacher at Bountiful Jr High and a devoted friend. Many of our teammates have known and loved Jason for over 25 years.  He always had a warm smile, a funny comment and a way to make everyone feel special. We all share a common grief and pain in the loss of such a great friend. 

Share your stories and photos of Jason!

Please use the COMMENTS section below to share stories of Jason as well as photos. We are going to compile these into a book for Anita as well as anyone else who would like one.

SDM Goal Setting!

Setting goals can help create a long-term vision and give purpose and meaning to your daily workouts. 

Starting this month, we are beginning to set and track swimming goals as a team. We have created a group spreadsheet where swimmers can track and update goals and coaches can communicate and help swimmers with their goals. 

Adding  goals to the spreadsheet:

1. Duplicate an existing tab by right-click and select ‘duplicate’. 

2. Rename the tab with your name. 

3. Delete the existing goals and fill out the sheet with your own. 

A SDM coach will follow up with you on your progress and give you some resources and comments to help you in your efforts.
