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.

  • Midas! Yesterday I really needed to swim but didn't get a chance. I did about 1 1/2 hours of stretching/light free weights, just to move a little bit. I am not sore at all. I am 37. On another note, when I lived in SF, I'd bike up and down TAM all day long. My dad still rides the headlands every Sunday 50+ miles. I miss that area. Great to hear you weren't sore! So did your swim meet go well? If you're ever back in Marin visiting, you should come work out with us!
