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.

I have found that my yardage needs are actually much higher than I first suspected....but I am a distance swimmer now (newly proclaimed in fact)....I have been swimming around 8000 - 10,000 yards a day on MWF and around 7000 - 8000 on Saturday mornings....I have really noticed a difference in my conditioning level lately as a result....I can now hold times on sets with much less fatigue than I was able to do just a month or two ago....I am feeling a little sore from it...but not too sore.....I would say my yardage needs are problably much higher than most of the other swimmers here though.
