How long does it take to swim 1 mile of breastroke?
Former Member
I used to be a competitive swimmer. Now I am much older, I start swimming again just for fitness and I would like to set a goal for myself. My goal is to swim 1 mile of breastroke (breastroke is my specialty) daily; it takes me 35 minutes to swim 1 mile. My question is what is the average time to swimm 1 mile of breastroke? Thanks
a mile is 5,280 feet or 1,760 yards ...
That's a lot of breastroke.
...I think I could hold around 1:25 to 1:30 per 100 yards and 1:40 to 1:45 meters.
I was really tempted to call your bluff on that claim...
Now that I think about it more I guess it's believable for a strong swimmer. That's essentially 18x100 br on the 1:30 interval. It's way out of my league.
