Homework #2
This is a two part interval assignment. Part 1: 2 x 500 meter start intervals with two minutes rest in between. The goal is to shift from 10 strokes high at the start and settle into race pace within 2 strokes.

Part 1
2 x 500 meters with racing start
Rest 2 minutes in between

Part 2
2 x 1000
Rest 2 minutes in between

Homework #3 (For those that can add in an additional session)
