Just got back from swimming 1100yards/1000 meters at the pool. It took slightly over a half an hour. I didn't keep exact time, I just know that I was in the pool just after 11:30 and out again sometime before 12:10.
I was fairly pleased. I kept track of the laps by doing drills in sets of four. Five sets of four (+2) are 1000 meters (22 laps @ 50yds/lap = 1100 yards = 1km. I did finger drag, catch-up, fist-swimming, legs-only, and normal freestyle where I really tried to concentrate on rotating my hips.
While I took very brief pauses occassionally, overall, they were only for a few seconds each. Although I did pause once when I forgot what set I was on, I was able to figure it out after a bit and started up again. I can hardly believe it when I think back to how winded I would be after just swimming 50m. Swimming is starting to be fun.
