i used to do distance but have started splitting this down into sets of 250 metres,or even 125 metres,i still do 3000metre workouts but must admit i feel fitter and healthier doing smaller sprints ,i would sometimes before swim2500metres without stopping,all i used to feel was drained at the end(lactic acids in abundance i think,combined with the occassional charlie horse for good measure)i looked like i'd come from the ministry of funny walks when i exited the pool.....
