Swimming my first 1000 free Sunday. How should this be paced based on the 500? If I average 1:14's for the 500, can I hold this or will breakfeast reverse on me?

Build each 100 but only descend the last 100? Keep the rest even?
Swim the first 500 in a comfortable, controlled pace. The second 500, feel like you are building each 100 within that 500. Feel as though you maybe negative splitting the race. You dont want to go out so fast that each 100 gets a lot slower.
As this is your first one, swim it, try to feel as though you went faster on the second half, get your splits, study them for the next one
