Forgive me.
I tried to find a thread where I could ask this seemingly silly question, but I couldn't find one.
I also have trouble finding the answer elsewhere.
Obviously this is not an official FINA event. But it does seem to be a popular event. I've seen swim-clubs doing local charity/fundraiser type things around the 3000m swim.
I think I will try one soon. Obviously I won't attack the WR/world best, but maybe I can emulate my other distance percentile-levels.
I'm guessing the WR is around 30min SC? 31min LC?
Thanks in advance if anyone has info on this strange request.

No, there's no world record for the 3000m.
Best you're probably going to get is the records for the 3000y Postal event USMS has.

Thanks! I notice a couple of 30min times there, which might be 33ish for meters? And these people are sprinter types.
