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).

Wow, I'm slow.
On my best days I cover a mile in 40 minutes, so my best hour would be right at 1.5mi/2400m.
FWIW, I haven't done any interval or speed training since I started swimming again this year. I am now training for triathlons and will be working on upping my pace over the next several months.
