Barbara Hummel	Responded Jan 06, 2009 08:37PM FL stands for butterfly. Think of it as a character-building set -- like most tough IM sets.
James Stuart	Responded Jan 09, 2009 12:46AM how long break takes?
Barbara Hummel	Responded Jan 09, 2009 02:01PM For a Masters swimmer, probably 30 to 40 on the 250s, 25 - 30 on the 150s, 20 on the 75s, 20 to 25 on the 125s.
