Great Test Set for the Season

Hi Ladies, Give this goal set a try. You can incorporate it once a week or every other.

2 x 100 (@ 2:15 enjoy)
2 x 100 (@ 2:00)
2 x 100 (@ 1:55)
2 x 100 (@ 1:50)
and so forth
do this until you can't hold the interval.

The reason this is a great test set is that as the season goes on, you can:

1. see how much faster you can hold
2. see if you can start on a faster interval and how fast you can get starting with less rest
3. see if you can hold faster 100's quality (maintaining a Distance Per Stroke goal (DPS)

Have fun! Share your accomplishments and your goal. Today we ended on 1:35 because, well, 14 x 100's seemed like enough as a starting point!
