I am a 50+ (actually 60+) female, and I thought it might be interesting for some older folks to post some workouts. This is one I did today.
400 easy
8 X 50 IM order - 15 seconds rest. Odds are building, and evens are 25 max plus 25 easy.
5 X 300 - (100 IM + 100 free + 100 stroke - 15 seconds rest between each 100), 30 seconds rest between each 300. Descend times for each 300.
250 cool down
total: 2,550 yards.
Descending the times for the 300 yard sets made this workout challenging and interesting.

Today I did a workout that had some IM stuff and some descend the times stuff.
600 easy warmup
some sprints: 3 X (6 X 25) building, 10 max, 25 max. rest 15 sec. between each 25 and swim an easy 50 between each set of 6. 1st set of 6 was freestyle, 2nd and 3rd set were a stroke other than freestyle
some IM stuff: 4 X (25 fly + 50 back + 75 *** + 100 free) rest 30 sec between each 250.
100 easy
12 X 50 IM order (3 fly, 3 back etc.) descend times for each set of three.
300 easy cooldown
total: 3200 yards
