06/30/05 Sets of 100s

THURSDAY, JUNE 30This practice is meant to help you prep for the Fairlee triathlon, where the swim is .9 mile. Try to hit an easy, sustainable pace on the very first 100. Try to hold your times the same on all of them, even though you will be getting less rest as the set progresses. The idea of the decreased rest intervals is to simulate end-of-race fatigue. If you would prefer not to do this much freestyle, you could do the 100s as stroke/free/stroke/free, or all stroke.WARMUP: Approx. 40010 minutes your choice, on your ownTRIATHLON SET: 1004 X 25 Freestyle, sighting on every strokeMAIN SET: 2150/1850Lane #1 should do sets of 5 X 100.
