https://community.usms.org/swimming/f/general/2059/1-2-hour-postal-swimThis weekend I have an 1/2 postal swim in my local 25 meter pool and will be aiming for 1600+ meters. I am age group D and have been swimming for the last 9 months after 20 odd years away from the blocks. My question is do you have a 1/2 hour postalen-USTelligent Community 12https://community.usms.org/thread/11436?ContentTypeID=1Mon, 26 Jan 2004 07:03:35 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:4252dff2-cc87-48bc-8dad-3c73fadc3d94Former Memberthats pretty good going,i only manage 1500m in half hour,but hope to improve this<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/11401?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 24 Jan 2004 07:32:52 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:355d169e-b3dc-44e3-9573-d2ec54851dc0Former MemberWell I swam my 1/2 hour postal today. I managed 1725 SCM(which I think is about 1900SCY)with goggle problems. I stopped briefly, twice, to adjust them to no avail and finally ripped them off in disgust after about 600 meters. I went through 800 @ 13.26 and through 1500 @ 25.45 I will not be doing that again this year!

Results from last year can be found on the USMS web site at www.usms.org/longdist You can multiply the USMS distances by 0.46 to get an approximate comparable distance for 1/2 hours metric swimming.<div style="clear:both;"></div>
