So I was surfing the <a href="http://www.swimplan.com" target="_blank">SwimPlan</a> site that CiGar posed. It's seems pretty cool.<br><br>
I was surprised, however, that the workouts are made up of so many short segments. I tend to do at least 200 or 300 yards at a time. When we swim in open water in the summer, it's across the lake (either ~1/4 or ~1/2 mile depending on the lake) before a rest so I just figured...<br><br>
When you do a 1500 yard workout (or longer) is it made up of 25, 50, and 100 yard segments with 10-20 second rests in-between? Or do you go longer?<br><br>
Is this a difference between a "swimmer's" workout and a "triathlete's" workout?
