      Descend – This is a set where each one of the repeats whatever the distance may be gets faster. The term descends comes from the time it takes for the swimmer to complete the distance. The swimmer gets faster each one until the last one is the fastest.

        One of my swimmers is in this video that her school made about sports in society (start watching at 5m37s). Great quote “La natation est une école de vie”.
