This afternoon's practice which was broken into three training groups for the first time had the most challenging set in the distance lane with Christian Welsh, Ethan Rowan and Elias Homerin doing battle in a set of:
1000 @ 12:30
5 x 200 IM descending at 3:00
1000 @ 12:30
10 x 100 odd EZ/evens Kick/Swim 50's @ 1:45
1000 For Time
The 1000's were descending as well and the last one came down to Ethan and Elias dueling side by side the whole way. At the 500 mark both were well under 5:00's at 4:54's and Elias had about a second lead at 650 yards. Ethan crawled back into the swim and pulled ahead but had lost track and briefly stopped at 850 thinking it was over. After jumping back into the final 150 both ended up finishing with very solid times of 10:00 for Elias and 10:02 for Ethan. This is a nice indicator that the distance events will be a solid area this season!!!
