Training choices

Just a quick question: is it reasonable (ok, no it’s not, but is is possible) to train for swim meets (i.e. 1650 & 500 free) and long distance open water (5-10K+) swims simultaneously? I’ve got YMCA nationals and a 7mile “Swim Around Lido Key” within two weeks of each other!!

  • Thanks Flystorms - I’m already “training” for the OW, as my main workout buddy is doing the Ultraman Feb 14 (again). We routinely get in 7-10K at least once a week. I think I prefer pool events, myself, but the challenge! of long distances. . .its more mental than physical for me
