Due to other injuries and issues keeping me from the bike and not running very much, I am dedicating this season to the OWS :) Found a great looking race at Lake Mead, 8K point to point. The longest race I've done is 4K in an ironman, I've done several 2 milers. IM swim was 59 minutes so I am not super fast (in "real swimmer" terms) but can get it done
I've got 5 months to train for it.
Typical week for me is Masters Tues/Thurs with 3000-3500 per session, and 1 OWS of 1 mile, increasing to 2 over the next couple weeks. This is what I did for the IM as well.
Should I be working up to 4 mile OWS? Adding 1 day in the pool? 2 days? Working towards 5K sessions?
Any advice appreciated
