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.
If you're an elite athlete training on a 2-year cycle to peak for World Champs and the Olympics, why would you use a rest/taper cycle for something that didn't count for anything whatsoever?
