Perhaps there would be interest in a rotating blog--a different swimmer each week posting his or her workouts. This would provide some insight into what various individuals are doing across the country (or around the world for that matter).

Saturday 1.5 hours Short Course Meters
5 x 100 @ 2.00
16 x 25 @ .35
250 pull free
20 seconds
250 pull stroke
4 x 100 IM @ 2.10
5 minute Pee Break (yes, it is formalized)
Main Set: choose a pace & maintain throughout
keeping technique consistent
16 x 25 @ .30
8 x 50 @ 5 sec rest, balance of 8 min after last one
4 x 100 @ 10 sec rest, balance of 8 min
2 x 200 @ 30 sec rest, balance of 8 min
1 x 400 @ 8:00
200 easy
Total 4000 meters
At first I felt that the main set had too much rest, but as I
settled into it found it wonderful to concentrate on maintaining
a long & strong stroke. It was our coaches subtle message that
we would be shifting to distance work.
From Wednesday's workout:
Main Set-SCM
4 x 200 back @ 3:45
2 min rest
100 back all out, coach exhorting, did 1:21
100 easy
4 x 50 'glide' 3 sec *** @1.00
4 x 50 'glide' 2 sec *** @1.00
4 x 50 'glide' 1 sec *** @1.10 coach adj interval
100 easy
1 x 50 all out *** from push did .38, since best I've done
from dive last few years has been .36 was pretty happy.
