A lot of people laugh when I say I'm a swimmer. They blow off swimming as some whimpy sport- but its harder than you'd think. I practice on 2 different teams- one year round and one during the winter. My total practice time a week is around 10 hours. ohmy.gif
You think you can handle that? rolleyes.gif

Here are some of my favorite sets:
10x100 on 1:00
5x500 (top race time)
10x200 on 1:50 descending 1:30
8x25 no breathe- sprint!!

You do some of these- these are the easy ones! blink.gif
