If you haven’t seen Dean Farris go 28.7 in a 75 free with fins yet, you should probably go watch it right now. This set off a slue of other athletes to do the same, including LSU’s Brooks Curry and Jack Jannasch and Drury’s Karol Ostrowski.
Here is the full practice from that day, which was a Wednesday in November, meaning threshold for the Harvard men. After a quick warmup, they split off into groups of 3 and did some fun relays where everyone swam a different leg (this is where the 75 with fins came in). Then they moved into 2 x 6-minute sets, which meant 100s @ 2:00 for some, 6×50 @ 1:00 for others, and 3×50 @ 2:00 for the speed guys.
Amazing content!! Very insightful to see how they train. Do they happen to have a women’s team?
Honestly, a bit of an underwhelming practice and pancakes. Too long
So Dean didn’t know his 75 was for time… Is he gonna redo his 75 and go 26.high?
Is that a digital record board on their pool deck? That’d be wild.
It was cheaper that way, the expense of updating it after every one of Dean’s swims was nearly going to bankrupt the school.
lol fair enough! It looks really cool!
EVERYONE, GIRD YOUR LOINS.
For it has posted. And it is good.
