One of Dimitriy's Gulag workouts today at Santa Monica College!
225 yard warm-up because the last 25 yards put us at the opposite side of the pool so the sun wouldn't be in Dimitriy's eyes. The damage that followed:
8 x 75s conducted in this manner:
1 x 50 Backstroke 1 x 25 Breaststroke @ 1:20 interval
1 x 75 Freestyle @ 1:20 interval
Repeat six times.
1 x 300 Freestyle @ 4:30 interval
1 x 100 Freestyle all out sprint @ 2:30 interval
1 x 100 Freestyle easy @ 2:00 interval
Repeat four times through
200 Free warm down.
On paper this looks like cake but in practice when you are holding a 1:20 pace on the 300's the all out sprint thereafter feels like water-boarding torture!

All this in a 60 min workout?
Yes, all within an hour. Picture swimming 54 yards every 2 minutes and it seems less formidable. However do the workout the way Dimitriy set it up and it was way formidable.
