How often do you swim long distance non-stop, say 1500m or more? How often is good? I try to plan for myself :)
(Also, when doing that, do you swim only freestyle or sometimes change to different strokes?)
I voted rarely since it's not something I do in the pool or even in the lake for training.
but I have swum 3x10,000yds once each year of college swimming (around 2:12-2:20 swim time) and two years ago I swam 6350m in 90 minutes.
but in my weekly training I don't swim much more than 400's and it's usually not more than 6-10 x 200 sets.
two weeks ago I swam 50km in 7 days, but it was with twoadays in a lake, and we usaully stopped ever 1000m or so to regroup and then swim another 1000m or so.
