The main set is 800 yards. The goal for this workout, as with future distance sets is to hold a consistent pace throughout the set. In order to accomplish this, start your first 100 at an easy to moderate pace. As you progress through the set this pace will become more difficult to hold, but it's not impossible YOU CAN DO IT! You goal is to swim at or near your base pace. Focus on maintaining good stroke form as you tire later in the set.

Cool down:
