IMers, We're Jacks & Jills of all trades
Fly back *** free
We gotta have speed but we gotta last to finish fast.
It takes strategy & conditioning.
We train equal amounts of all 4 or have a fatal flaw.
We try to make our worst stroke not so bad.
It's worked well for Ryan Michael Eric, Ariana Kirsty & Stephony

In thinking about my recent 3000 IM, a possible upcoming 6000 IM, and the upcoming Brute Squad swim (300 fly + 100 back + 100 *** + 1750 free; Fitness Events and Challenges - U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums), at some point I remembered The Cumberland (500 free + 400 IM + 300 back + 200 *** + 100 fly; New Year's swims - U.S. Masters Swimming Discussion Forums) and decided that since it's been almost 4 years, I definitely needed to swim it again. So this morning I posted a 19:40 (rough splits: 5:50, 11:23, 15:21, ???, 19:40) and then found in that New Year's thread that I was a little slower this morning that I was back then.
This challenge should be a bit more accessible than a 3000 or 6000 IM. What say you? :anim_coffee:
