I'm planning on a one hour IM. 15 minutes per stroke. 4000 seems like a reasonable goal to shoot for.
Wednesday main set (4320 IM)
One Hour Postal swim done as one hour IM - 15 minutes per stroke
Butterfly - 1050
Backstroke - 1100
Breastroke - 950
Freestyle - 1220
In butterfly, I did DPS fly except I mixed in regular 25 flys at the following points: 75, 175, 275, 475, 575, 675, 775, 875, 975, 1025.
Managing to do 1100 backstroke in 15 minutes when the first 200 was basically recovery swimming makes me think that last year's 4250 backstroke in one hour wasn't really a very good swim for me.
I had set 4000 as my goal because I figured I would do well under 1000 breastroke and would need the other strokes to pull me up to 4000. So totaling 950 there was nice.
80 warmdown and out
The other swimmers in the pool had been making guesses about WTF I was doing. The closest guess was 1600 IM.
