did a 1000 in practice yesterday, took a 50 easy and then did a 500. pool was hot, about 86 degrees.
I did a 1k warmup then:
1000 was in 11:55 the first 500 was around 5:57. I started on a 1:10 pace and quickly settled into 1:12 or so.
the following 500 was on 5:58.
I'm thinking as long as the pool is a bit cooler (which I believe it is, Germantown Academy) I should be ok to keep that pace for an hour. Did not feel particularly worn out or overly tired.
