Swimming Lingo

So I thought I had this figured out but thought I'd ask those more in the know in case I was going about this all wrong

If my workout calls for :
"MS: 300 on 1:30 rest
2 * 150 on :45 rest
4 * 75 on :30 rest "

Am I swimming 300 then resting 1:30 or am I trying to swim 300 in 1:30 (like, is that even humanly possible? . And so on, 150 then 45 RI?

Tnx!!

well THAT'S a relief, as it takes me 2:00 to do 100 so I thought for a minute, gee, I must be really, really, really slow if they're wanting me to do 300 in 1:30.

OY, foiled again, our rec center was closed for Easter -- I'll try to refrain from a minor rant over a publicly funded institution being closed on a Christian holiday but I guess it was a good excuse for a day off.

It's now been 8 days on land. My gills are sure to fall off.
