I swam my 3000 postal swim this morning and had quite a bit of time to think, probably much more than most, and I was wondering how many yards most masters swim in a workout? From what I read here most workouts are interval types, I do intervals but of longer duration than many ( 500,1000,1500 ) I am more sea turtle than shark. I am sure this has been discussed to death here, just to lazy ( like I said, sea turtle ) to look it up. Thanks.

I couldn't vote; it didn't go far enough. Because I swim alone and always in the ocean, I would have to say 4+ miles daily is pretty average for me. But think about it, I have lots of fish to always look at which keeps it from getting mundane. Everything here on the island is in miles. If I swim my best girlfriend home, that is 2 miles, then 2 miles back. If I am going to lunch at West Bay, that is 3 miles (but I take a water-taxi back). I guess I use swimming as a mode of transportation!!! (LOL)
