I have a friend who is leading a group of swimmers, mostly tris. The tris are stating that the workouts need to focus more on longer distances, such as sets of 200s, 300s and 400s.
I would like SR input on tri-swimming workouts that I can pass along to my friend.

sets of 100's can be great too.
Try 16 x 100 with a 5 second RI at 80% effort. (a good pace set for a mile swim)
I think any sets between 1500 and 3000 yards total with short rest intervals are great for building endurance, and preparing one to swim a good mile or two.
