Hey guys,
I'm a collegiate runner but my first love was always swimming. I swam competitively for about 9 years and all through high school. Now, with a broken toe, I have been relegated to the pool in order to get in shape for track season. I have been slowly working my way up to doing about 3,500 yards per day (hoping to get back up to about 7000 in the next few weeks), as well as doing base interval workouts. My question is, how often should I do interval work? For instance, yesterday I did a set of 3x at my base interval pace. Should I get back in the water and do another interval set today? I remember doing base work just about every day in high school, but I'm not sure if that's how it's supposed to be, because in running at least, you can only do 2 or 3 hard efforts per week. Thanks for any advice!
Zack
