I would love to see what kind of yardage some of you are doing out there. Just ball park numbers. I realize there is much more to swimming than how many yards one does, and training for different events entails differences in yardages, but I would still like to see what everyone is doing so I can know where I fall within the "norm". Also, if anyone knows, I would like to know what some of the masters All American's do as far as yardage. I see times for Jeff Commins in the *** and IM events and wonder how much he must train.
I limped my way to 174 miles last year, over 92 swims so that's only an average of about 3300 yards per session. I prefer shorter (2000 yard) sessions at a higher average effort (90+%) than long endurance sets.
