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!!
Celeste, the long distance stuff is definitely mind over matter once you get your body in shape. If you can already do the 7-10k in one sitting, you should be fine for the race itself. I hear that's a fun race so good luck and post up a race report on the OW thread when you're done!
