There is a method, which is referred to as the Rushall method which Michael Andrew uses.
Was wondering if you had any critique about this. If this sort of training is a good idea and what are the problems.
Would this also be good for longer events? Like the 400 IM?
Thanks!

Are you actually going race pace or AFAP? This is a trick question. If the answer is anything other than race pace then you aren't doing USRPT. Yours is one of the first horror stories I have heard related to USRPT.
Also what you are doing is not the 50 practice recommended by Rushall. I want to hear if you were going your 100 pace though.
Im going race pace for the back half of my 100s. However to make those goal times consistently with so little rest I am basically going AFAP while breathing alot more than I would breathe if I was truly doing AFAP 25 sprints.
