D Men & Women Unite
you're a sick bunch
The longer the better
your sprints are 200's, 400's, 500's, 800's, & 1000's
You barely get going on 1,500's & 1,650's
You love 2Ks, 3K's, 5K's, 10K's, & some of you love 25K's.
Talk to each other, I have no clue what you do over there.
What did you do in practice today?

Another way of breaking up a 1650 in practice rather than the traditional 11, 10, 9, ......2, 1, is doing like this:
2 x 300 @ 4:15
2 x 225 @ 2:45
2 x 150 @ 2:00
2 x 75 @ 1:00
2 x 50 @ :40
2 x 25 @ :20
------------------
1650 @ 22:00
These are just the intervals I used in doing the set. I just hate counting lengths and taking xx seconds of rest. I'd rather have a set distance and interval time to keep me honest from just swimming slower as I got tired. This really make you get moving at the end of the 1650. :cheerleader:
