In a crazy (and fruitless) attempt to recapture my youth, I do look forward to the holiday break when inevitably we all have at least one set or one practice where our master's coach throws us a doozy set (and we may have a 2 hour practice instead of the usual 1.5 hour practice) - in an attempt to either try and get us in shape or simply have a chuckle or help us justify eating that extra piece of fruitcake.
Does anyone have any crazy/ insanely long and challenging set they would like to share?
I'll start. We had sort of a post thanksgiving distance free set that we just did:
100 FR @ 1:15
200 FR @ 2:30
300 FR @ 3:45
400 FR @ 5:00
500 FR @ 6:15
Three times through. All on 1:15 pace. (Goal is to do eventually make at 1:10 pace).
Total yardage is 4500 for the set.
Has anyone done the 100x100s? And at what pace? I'm sort of interested in trying that.

I am planning a birthday (not a holiday unless your me) set that includes 4200 yds. fly
200 free warm up (i'll do this at 12spl)
200 fly on 4:00 (long and light about 2:45)
2x 100 fly on 1:50 (build... hold 1:20)
4x 50 fly on :50 (descend to :33)
4x 25 fly on :30 (alt. easy/sprint x25)
100 easy backstroke
Repeat six times.
2/13/07....mark your calenders.
