Checkoff Challenge in One Practice

Can someone please point me to a link or article where a team had done the entire list of events in one workout, effectively doing the entire check-off challenge in one practice - I recall there was great strategy in where to place each event. I would also love to see comments on what order you would do the events. I'd like people's advice on splitting it into two workouts. I'm actually doing our annual Dallas Aquatic Masters Swim for Distance. My goal is 50,000 meters total, which is quite modest, but the self-imposed added degree of difficulty is 1/3 free, 1/3 stroke, and 1/3 kick. Not so easy at all! If i'm going to get in this good conditioning, then I might as well consider doing the check off challenge somewhere in there! The great thing so far is the coaches still inject some good sprinting within the workouts!

  • This is a good idea. Getting 3 of these big swims done will make the rest of workout easier. I agree the 400 IM and 200 fly are pretty tough, so I don't want to have those two hanging over me....I also think I'd have to pick the entire order beforehand, and also assign "quality", "recovery", and "smooth technique" designations to make it less boring.
