  • Any creative tips for a 1500, other than to not die? Last weekend I completed my first 1500. In order to slow myself down and not burn out my shoulders, I did every other length with alternate-side breathing, and it felt alright. I ended up averaging a 1:51 for each 100 (and later swam the actual 100 as a 1:23.) If I ever do it again, I'll have to come up with some way to make it not so boring, or get a better song stuck in my head.
