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?)
My team does quite a few 20 and 30 minute swims in December-January in preparation for the hour swim. Many of those are close to or in excess of 1500 meters. We don't train that way otherwise during the year. It's not fun, but we work hard at maintaining our intended hour swim pace, and that can help pass the time.
