Swim Set of the Week - June 12, 2009

Posted by Barbara Hummel on Jun 12, 2009 12:15PM (2,415 views)

This set is in honor of Scott May, a Masters swimmer on the team that I coach.  He's got a Big Birthday coming up and is doing this challenge set tomorrow.  

40 X 100 IM on 1:40 sendoff (short-course meters)
Take 1 minute extra rest after each 10 X 100.  No equipment.

The rest of us are doing 40 X 75 on 1:40 :)

Go, Scott!

Lol. Scott survived beautifully (getting about 12 seconds rest on each 100) and so did his buddy Surachai (getting about 7 seconds rest). Another group of swimmers did the 100s with a mix of IM, free, and back. The rest of us did 40 X 75 and it was plenty tough:) We all took an extra 60 seconds rest before the last round. We cranked up the PA system and had a good music mix, which helped a lot.
