I'm getting ready to do a 4.8 mile swim in a month and I'm trying to get in some 5000m (and up) pool swims. I usually max out at about 3500 yards so I'm struggling to come up with some workouts longer than that. Does anyone have any good suggestions for sets? Last week I did a main set of 10x200, so I'm fine with swimming some slightly tedious stuff.
I always like a pyramid:
1 x 500
2 x 400
3 x 300
4 x 200
5 x 100
Total: 3500
Add another step to the pyramid:
1 x 600
2 x 500
3 x 400
4 x 300
5 x 200
6 x 100
Total: 5600 (if I'm doing public math correctly)
