On another thread, there was a reference to having a "focus event." I was wondering how many of us have focus events and what they are. Is it a good thing to have a focus event to help direct your training?
I have an event that always seems to be my "best" event (50 back), but I wouldn't say I focus on it exclusively at all. More apt to focus on sprinting in general.
Thoughts?

I'm focused on a 20 mile swim next year; time is irrelevant; completion is everything. I'll feel better when I get to consistent 10 mile swims. The clock is ticking and I'm trying to keep up.:doh:
Given the distances that your are swimming already, I'd lay good money down that you could do it now. I'm not saying it would be a walk in the park, but you could do it.
If you get to consistent 10 milers, you will be READY in spades. At that level, you could handily do Manhattan, if you can take the colder water.
