One topic of great interest to us all is
"What do you need to do to have a major swimming breakthrough?"
"What do you need to do to significantly improve your swimming times over one season?"
Do you have any specific, nitty gritty type suggestions.
I think it's really easy to fall into ruts, to just show up and go through the motions rather than seizing the moment while we train.
Any one have any thoughts on what we need to do to significantly improve?

Hey Ande,
The season for my school as started, and for the 50 yd freestyle I have gotten down to a 27 flat as my lifetime best. The time I would like to go, as I mentioned before, is less than a 24.3 sec.
I have heard that running helps swimming, and I believe that, but does it really help in terms of sprinting? For endurance during minutes or hours of swimming, no doubt it will help, but for a 30 second interval of time (or a 24.3 second interval of time) will it make much of a difference?
Thanks a lot,
