How should I train each week to prepare for my crazy race line-up?

The events I choose for every meet always include the following: 50 breaststroke, 200 butterfly, 400 IM, and 200 backstroke.  Depending on the meet, I fill in with additional breaststroke, butterfly, or 200 IM.  For the National Senior Games this summer, I will be racing the 100 fly, 50 breast, and 400 IM on the first day, 200 back and 200 fly on the second day, and 200 IM on third day, and relays on the last day.

Question:  Any recommendations on how to divide up my training day and week?  I swim six days per week, averaging 2,500 yards per day.

Thanks!

  • I did the set today; it was a good one!  I would like to know if there is a rest interval I should shoot for in any part of the 800 IM set.  I understand I should rest as long as I need to make my goal time for the 100's, but is there a rest interval you recommend after the 100's and before swimming the 50/50's?  Thanks!
