I am in the middle of the offseason, so I am swimming in a pool twice a week (swimming is my weakest part).
Once a week I do some intervals, once a week i do a straight swim. In both cases, I up my distance 50 meters, and I am up to 2600 meters. Is there a point where I am going to far? Or I don't need to keep going. I am training for an olympic triathlon. I would think that the farther I can go the better, but I don't want to get into to overdo it just to do it. Clearly I want to go further than 1500 meters, but I know that at a certain point, it's just overkill.
