This is a good set for the science of managing pace throughout a set or a race.  The best way to get through this set is to begin by maintaining a steady pace on the first half of the set, and then shifting over to swimming to the interval on the latter half.  This is a sneaky set—the toughest part of it will be the 4×50 at the end.
