I see many people saying that one should swim at or close to race pace in training. My question is how much rest should be allowed for the interval such as doing 100's on the 1:25 and coming in on 1:15 = 10 sec rest. I don't know about everyone else but I have a hard time maintaining race pace without significant rest or for prolonged periods. Thanks in advance.
I do mostly race pace in season,swimming 1/2 distance at the pace of the second half of the race(i.e. 50s at the speed of the 2nd 50 of my 100 goal time.)The interval is what ever it takes to keep that speed(generally 50s on the 2 min.)
