400 your choice on your own
MAIN SET:
The goal on this set is to hold your times steady, even as you get less and less rest.

200 recovery with fins, as above.
WARMDOWN: 100
This was a kind of hammer-it-out practice. Most everyone held their times steady throughout the set, but technique was falling apart just a bit, so this warmdown is designed to make you focus intently on technique and HOW you’re moving through the water.
4 X 25 silent swimming, taking 5 bobs as recovery between 25s. Do at least 2 X 25 freestyle; the others are choice. LISTEN to yourself as you swim — feet, hands, head, torso — and be as quiet as possible.
TOTAL YARDAGE: 2600/2500/2000
