How can one truly know what swimming distances one is best suited for? Can it be possible that somebody is better suited for distance but it is not showing due to low yardage in training? Are there some quick ways to figure this out?
Thanks, Kirk. Would you share some of your favorite sets for training distance? This is not an area that I have tons of experience in.
I'm not Kirk, but do take a look at the daily sets posted by Coach Chris Layton in the "Workouts" forum. They have been for distance all summer. Chris Layton at the end of July completed a very long swim; see the top page of this site.
I would include some sprinting and kick sets each week, as that should also help with the distance swims.
