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.

Jean: I find this thread pretty interesting and I agree with tzsegal that it applies to any age group. I find this type of thread useful and encouraging of the efforts of many of us. Reading the threads where people have amazingly short intervals is impressive but unrealistic for many of us and I have a feeling there are really many of us doing moderate workouts (for lots of reasons) and thriving on it. I hope you keep up the writing and include all age groups.
