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.

This workout was adapted from a workout entitled "fly workout #2" on the Toronto Masters of the Universe website. It didn't look all that bad in print, but it turned out to be pretty challenging because of all the fly - when I added it up, there was some 1300 yards of fly in it.
