Is swimming "eating its young?" Are they being burned out with mindless yardage? Do they have to do volume training for long events? Are we missing masters swimmers who were burned out as youths? As to the kids, what can we do to stop the cannabalism?
Actually, I would rather do a short distances IM set, or a set of ~200s or less free working on speed pacing rahter than do 300s, 400s, 500s... not that I don't mind doing the occasional 500 during a practice or anything...
As for the monotonousness, some weeks I just want do do something other than get in a pool, you know?:banana:
