I posted about 6 weeks ago asking for workout advice on how to lower my time in the 100 free. I am now down to a 1:02. I have been focusing on my kicking, my technique and most of my workouts are at race pace. I would like some workout advice on how to strengthen my last 25. I notice a considerable drop off in strength and my technique tends to fall apart in that last lap. Anyone have thoughts or advice?

Great post, Paul! Here's a positive to think about...once you break 1:00.00 it's hard to go back over 1:00.00 unless you take a vacation from training!
Either way, work on your "tired technique" instead of doing drill sets just before the workouts, try to sandwhich your workout with drill sets so you are able to focus on the technique when you are exhausted after the workout. Just something to work on the debate between "swimming tired" and "tired swimming"
