Cabrini College – Training for the Mile

Additional Comments
The Broken 1650 is to be swum as follows :

1×25 R 15
1×50 R 20
1×75 R 25
1×100 R 30
1×125 R 35
1×150 R 40
1×175 R 45
1×200 R 50
1×225 R 55
1×250 R 1:00
1×275

The total rest time for this set is 6:15. So take the total time of the broken swim and subtract 6:15 to get their mile time. Obviously this set is to be done at race pace. We have seen this set give a pretty good indication as to where the 1650 will be.
