I have recently gotten back into swimming after a very long absence -almost 30 yrs :) .
I just completed a set of workouts designed to get me to swim 1 mile without rest (www.ruthkazez.com/.../ZeroTo1mile.html ). I am swimming 1 mile in approx 37 minutes, and I have done this for my last 4 workouts. I am swimming at least 4 times a week (occasionally 5).
I am looking for advice on some other workouts that I can use to build on this. I have tried to do some research on the 'net, but am not sure if I am finding stuff that is appropriate. A draw back that I have is that I struggle with stokes other than free - although a can muddle thru ***, assuming I am doing it correctly :) Also, I am not sure I understand all the terminolgy...pull, drill, etc.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks for that article you posted. I`m going to give it to a few people I know who are showing an interest in getting wet.
Here`s my problem...I have a TERRIBLE time understanding the workouts posted at this site, I don`t know the lingo...pyramids and such,..its all greek. I do almost all my swimming in the Ocean and I merely shift gears as I swim,...swim fast for 50 strokes,..slow for 50 strokes,...fast for 75 strokes,..etc.
