After reading alot of threads, it seems my volume and frequency is way lower than everyone elses. My freestyle workouts are typically no more than 1500 to 1700 yards. If it is a repeat workout, then it is less (i.e. 10x100, 5x200, 2x500....etc) I swim three times a week.
My fly, *** and back workouts are no more than 1000 yds (still learning those strokes).
I am biased towards the sprints like 100 free and maybe someday if I'm lucky the 200 IM. Is this volume OK for a 42 year old, or should I be trying to build in more yardage?

I raced Clark Scholes in Ohio in 1955 he led me for 90yards I was at his hip with 10 yards to go, he seemed to sink in the water and I won. I had gone all out for that 100 also and did not swim by him he just slowed down and almost stopped.
