Swim Golf  500/13:00
10x50m free @1:00-1:30

For each 50m swim, count the number of strokes and add it to the time it took to swim (in seconds). This is your 'golf score'.
The goal is to reduce this score over the 10x50m. This can be achieved by increasing stroke efficiency (reducing stroke count) and/or increasing speed (reducing time).
For example, if a swimmer takes 45 strokes to complete 50m and does it in 45 seconds, their golf score is 90. Aim to reduce this score over the series of 50m swims.
