1st 1000 free. Need advice.

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?

  • Usually my problem is starting out too slow then finding myself "stuck" in slow gear I can almost guarantee that won't happen. That's what is making me nervous. Good idea about breaking it into 100's and what you say about coming off the wall with speed. I watched a NCAA 500 and a guy was 6 beat kicking off the wall for 12.5yds then two beat. Interesting.
