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 think you would find that most of the people that responded wouldn't claim to train for a 5k or 10k or more... though they might participate in said events.
And when they do participate, they probably do complete it, regardless speed...?
Unfortunately, the kid next to me swam spot on with me all the way through, so we nearly killed each other trying to inch ahead here, or at the next turn, or... At the end, we sprinted (as much as was left anyway) the last 50M, all the way to the wall. We ended up friends for a long time after that meet, and to this day, I will never, ever, do THAT again!
That's a nice story! I may be able to make friend with one who ties with me for being the slowest :D
