Hi, all. I'm interested to know: How long distance can you swim in 1 hour, comfortably, with or without short rests? (By "comfortably" I mean it's not like you are racing badly. So I think it's not like the postal swim.) It doesn't matter whether it's in a pool or in open water (obviously in OW you can't rest).

4400 comfortably at 57 is indeed very impressive. How many years have you been swimming, Jim? What age do you consider was the peak?
I find that shallower pools (4'-4'5") are difficult to swim in. When I tried backstroke, as soon as I started my legs sank. Also I wonder if the buoyancy in chlorine pools and ozone pools are different?
I hope some time early next year I can progress to the second slowest posted in this thread :)
