How do you train for the one hour postal?
Currently I swim about 2100 - 2200yds 4 -days a week - 3 days coached w/ age group kids
1 day same yardage but not coached.
I'm thinking about staying late during my coached days and swim an extra 500 -1000 yds after practice. My thinking is this extra yardage is about what I can do to be able to get home and get dinner on the table. Then increase my 1 day not coached to about 3000 yds and do more distance swims. My personal goal is to do any where from 4200 - 4500 in the postal.

I like the above answer--going more yardage gradually.
I'm doing my first 1 hour Postal in January as well so I was anxious to see any advice.
I have done 2 30-minute swims, two weeks apart. The second one was today and I added on another 125 compared to the first so I was happy.
I guess next up is a 45 minute swim.
