Hey folks,
I have been swimming a long time, but the last year or so I have gotten into running a lot more. I still want to do the open water races I love so much (Donner Lake!), but I'm just no getting in the pool a lot.
What is the best way to train for distance if you don't have a lot of pool time? Should I do intervals, long steady swims (I used to do lots of 3500s), long fast/slow swims (50 fast/50 slow for a couple of miles)?
I think I am fine with aerobic training, I run a lot, but my arm strength is gettng kind of weak.
