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.

in college we used to do 100 x 100s on new years eve every year.. we would do the first 10 on 1:40 as a team, and then everyone would finish on thir fastest possible sendoff
i tried to do them on 1:10 my senior year, but only made to #50, so 40 on 1:10 .. did the last 50 on 1:15..
mentally one of the toughest things ive done, but for some reason looked forward to it every year
soph year i hit a wall on #98.. it was absolutely riduculous.. did them almost all on 1:15 and 1:20, and on the last 3 i literally died.. i think i was like 1:00 on my last 50 of the last one
