training for lcm in a scm pool

Wish I could be more help, but I have the opposite problem. Our masters team trains LCM all year, but we only swim 1-2 LCM meets a year. We do tons of endurance work, but very little speed work. Until I started swimming with my age-groupers, I used to overswim turns in warm-up and whack my heels on the gutter. OUCH! I highly recommend getting in a LCM pool for at least a few practices. It really is amazing how much longer it is. A real shock to the muscle memory. Good Luck!
