After 8 or 9 minutes he just declared it a tie and told the 3 guys left they were done.
I was talking swimming with a friend and coworker who swam in college. He told me that he swam 800yds a few weeks ago and promptly threw up (its been a few yrs). He was depressed.
He told me that his worst workout in college was 100 100's, and his intervals needed to be under 1'36"(including rest). That is absolutely BRUTAL! Did your coach do stuff like that?
