I got permission from Coach Chris Coraggio yesterday to publish his workouts here. The only stipulation he added was that he is not responsible if they don’t work for you!

300 m warmup

3 10 minute swims @ race pace (one minute rest between)

7 minutes of 25 m (5 sec rest) at faster pace than the 10 minute swims.

100 cooldown

Total 2250 meters

We got a couple minutes rest between the first two ten minute swims because Chris had some explaining to do for the Triathletes. We didn’t get started right on time, either.
