I tried doing a search in the forums on this and couldn't find anything. I am curious to know how many yards people in Masters are swimming a practice. I swim on average 3000-4000 yards a practice, 3 times a week.

No, not at all.
I started swimming at 28, and with that my times are fast, two lifetime bests in 2005.
My lifetime bests are in the range of swimming that full time swimmers in age group swimming, do.
My swimming is more impressive than the swimming by someone who peaked at 20, while in the window of best aerobic and physiological development, materially sheltered in school by parents, then degrades to times that now are still fast compared to late bloomers like me but slow when compared to that person's peak.
Someone like that has no dignity to degrade oneself, when becoming a self-supporting adult.
