Swim, Swim, Swim
Yep, still swimming. Getting a little tired of it too – I would be much happier in open water, with a set destination, as opposed to this proverbial hamster wheel of swimming laps.
Today’s WOD:
- swim 1 mile
1 mile swim facts
People ask me, “how do you know you are swimming a mile?”
My method is a guess-ti-mation, but the following are absolutes:
- In an olympic-sized pool, 72 lengths equates to 1 mile
- 36 laps (down and back)
So, I time myself swimming very slowly for one full lap (down and back). It take me right at ~60 seconds to swim a full lap slowly; therefore, if I swim for 35-45 minutes, I am assured of clocking at least 1 mile.
It’s not scientific, but it beats trying to count 72 lengths, or 36 laps.
