Crazy MASTERS workouts

I am now swimming with a new team. I think everyone of them is insanely fast. By insanely fast I mean they are either Olympians (true story), former DI NCAA finalist, World Record holders, etc. Not sure how or why they let me in ... perhaps as their entertainment. This was the main set this morning, it is SCY but still ... 4 X (3 x 100 1 @ 1:30, 1 @ 1:10, 1 @ 1:30, 200 free) Round 1 200 Fr @ 2:30 Round 2 200 Fr @ 2:20 Round 3 200 Fr @ 2:10 Round 4 200 Fr @ 2:00 Being nowhere near fast enough to do almost any part of this set AND being a "drop dead" sprinter AND having to get out to get to work on time I missed all of it sans the first 3 100s which were more than enough. I believe at least a couple made the entire set ... I told a teammate I would have needed fins, paddles and prayer to come close ...

  • I am bookmarking this for a future solo workout ... of course, I might need to taper/shave to hit that 1:55 in workout! Want me to ask Mark if he wants to give us this workout when you visit on Tuesday? I'm not so sure of the intervals, though; I think he would probably want to use the original ones Heather gave. He was talking about giving you another crack at the 150/200 workout he gave us last time you visited: 4 x 150 on 2:15 1 x 200 on 2:15 3 x 150 on 2:15 1 x 200 on 2:15 2 x 150 on 2:15 1 x 200 on 2:15 1 x 150 on 2:15 1 x 200 on 2:15 150s are cruise, 200s are "hold best average."
