Olympic Swimming Trial Tour
Donation protected
Hi! My name is Alexa Harris and I am a pro swimmer for Lane Four Aquatics in Bettendorf, Iowa. I am currently training for the 2016 Olympic Trials that will take place in Omaha, NE starting June 26. I will be swimming the 100 Butterfly at the Trials, with hopes to add another swim in the next few weeks. 
This picture was taken at Lane Four's 2013 Swim Pink Meet at the Univeristy of Iowa.
I am training under Demian Werner in Bettendorf, Iowa for Lane Four Aquatics. Lane Four is an Elite Competition Swim Team with very high standards, which is what first attracted me to this team. I train about 15-20 hours per week and travel to the University of Iowa often to get in 50 meter swimming. I am committed to making these last few weeks of training count and look forward to the end of June.
While training for the team as an athlete, I also coach under Coach Werner's guidance. I love coaching and helping young swimmers reach their fullest potential.
I am raising money to offset the cost of traveling to the Trials, as well as lodging. In order to compete at my highest potential I have to travel to the meet a couple days earlier to train in the pool for a few days to adjust to the atmosphere, which in turn costs quite a bit of money.
Swimming has been a part of my life for the past 15 years and it has shaped me into the person I am today. I was lucky enough to have made the 2012 Olympic Trials in the 200 Backstroke and I am so excited to go back with experience under my belt. Competing at this level is something I have always dreamed of and I hope to make the 10 year old version of myself proud.
This picture was taken right after I made my 100 Fly Olympic Trial cut at Purdue Univeristy in the summer of 2015.In order to show my appreciation:
With every donation of $50 I would like to send you a special t-shirt, made with my Disney obession in mind!
With every donation of $100 I would like to send you a special t-shirt along with a 30 min private swim lesson (for those who have children close to the Quad City area).
With every donation of $200 I would like to send you a pair (2) of my special t-shirts along with pair (2) of prelims (first come first serve) tickets to the 2016 Olympic Trials.
With every donation of $400+ I would like to send you a pair (2) of my special t-shirts, along with pair (2) of Finals (first come first serve) tickets to the 2016 Olympic Trials.
Every contribution will help to raise the necessary funds to make this trip happen and any donation is greatly appreciated!
Thank you so much for your support and helping to give me an opportunity that most althetes don't get!
