Coach Notes

The swim coach was asked to define any shorthand he or she used in this workout. Their notes should provide some additional context to this swimming workout.

In the short dist group the race model is as follow. One swimmer is swimming a whole 75m as one teammates (swimming about the same PB) will swim with him the second 25 and another one is swimming the last one pushing the first swimmer to race on each 25m. Did already exercices on 25s and 50s.
