Start the set with a pace you feel confident you can hold for a long time. Be careful not to be too aggressive at the beginning, it just may creep up on you.

Main Set Thursday - Logical Descend

Are you a swimmer who operates like a vacuum cleaner, with one speed and a very simple ON/OFF switch? Or are you a swimmer who operates more like a high-tech piece of stereo equipment?
