Get Faster Plan's Swim "Race Pace"?

I am in the middle of the Get Faster plan. A couple of the swim sets say T-pace + 2-3 seconds. I know what this is. However, a couple also say Race pace - 2-3 seconds. I can't remember how to determine the Swim "Race Pace" the Getting Faster plan is wanting me to swim. Help??

    @Heather Helms - The EN guidance for swim race pace is to "swim only fast as your ability to maintain form. If your form starts to fail, slow down." Obviously your race distance will also dictate how fast you can swim while maintaining good form. Though you're not in the Race Prep Training yet, another method to determine race pace is from the several Swim Race Rehearsals you'll do leading up to your race. I hope this helps!
